Bob Hoover's Rockwell Shriek Commander,  I have seen Bob fly this at Oshkosh, doing the roll after take-off and engine shutdown, while rolling and his single engine climb out.  Returning with his dead stick landings and roll outs and taxing to the exact starting point routine.  Same routine he used for his P51 show.

Lunch at Subway's.  Since the museum has just recently opened, The McDonald's was not finished or open, this was the only place to pickup a lunch.  Not your typical Subway, all lunches were pre-made and bagged.  I had the tuna fish sub and potato chips with a couple of diet cokes.
