That's your lot then,no military included as I don't do them but especially for Graham,if you look on the excellent Scramble website,under their archive section there is a list of most of the military aircraft that took part.

G-AXVG H.S 748 Dan Air 
YR-IMI Ilyushin 18 Tarom
LZ-BEA Ilyushin 18 Bulair
D-EOFG Cessna 210
I-ALKI Cessna 210
D-ECJC Cessna 172
OE-FPW PA-31 Navajo
N803WA Douglas DC8 World
YU-AJD Tupolev 134 Aviogenex
G-AYTP PA-27 Aztec

As fellow forum member Bob would say "Happy Days"

"Happy Days" indeed Dave, thanks sso much for posting these logs and for the Scramble link for the military stuff. Just think that was very nearly 43 years ago. Time flies.....

If I start to think how long ago that was I'll start getting panic attacks,seriously though I don't mind admitting that I started to get a little misty eyed as I was typing it up,all of those iconic airliners that we will never see again.

Catch you soon.

N2B was registered as a Breezy between 1970 and 2012. Having seen a few at Oshkosh, they are fairly basic mid wing single engine light aircraft.
