  • In this episode, Kevin comes to you from Oshkosh 2019 and is talking with Gary Velasco of FightingColors.com who for over the last 20 plus years has taken his gift of painting and his love for aviation and turned it into a career that focuses on restoring history. Gary is a key part in restoring a warbird that once had nose art and he is the one that is able to bring it to life and recreate the colors and the piece of art work to scale and with even more detail than you could ever imagine. Gary is your one stop shop for anything that you needed replicated from our military's past when it comes to painting nose art or pin-up's. If you love Pin-ups and don't have an airplane to put one on that is ok as Gary has many designs you can choose from and he will create a small piece from history for your hangar or man cave as big or as small as you desire. In this episode you will learn about Gary and how Fightingcolors.com was founded and he will talk all about different art that he has done on many of the warbirds your use to seeing at your local airshow.

    This episode is a great one and I really enjoyed talking to Gary and I hope you enjoy listening just as much as I enjoyed doing the interview.

We had the pleasure to sit down with Andy on top of the TBM Trailer that sat near the flight line and just down the way from the Mig-21 that Andy has put so much time into working with people to bring the aircraft back to what it looked like when it was in active service.
