Yes, J-hulk and a free tan and insect bites, too.
Ron, how I wish I can take these stuff home but these are not affected by the proposed expressway.
DJ, I’ll e-mail it to you but it’s not very good. I only have one full-body shot and not close-ups. Most of the outside parts of the planes have been already stripped as well as the engines.
Thanks to everyone.
Ha-ha-ha. Boy, is it hard to get away with something like this nowadays. LOL.
Sure did madda. Actually the base was the second choice for the landing of Pres. Bush’s Air Force One for the Oct 18 visit. A lot of secret service guys were in the hotel with us. Unfortunately, Air Force One landed in Manila.
It could be, Ray. Actually I just noticed the star on the left box. This is basically a Russian or Chinese insignia. The Philippine Army or Air Force do not use this sign. I am just wandering how we got one of these. I checked it out and we do have bofors AA guns but it’s the navy who uses them. The air force uses the 20mm U.S. made AA guns.
The star was why I guessed chinese copy for it. That star looks like a norinco stamp on all the chinese copies that I have seen. Just my guess… would be nice to find out 
Nice pix Dwight. Where’d you get this, Clark or Subic? I haven’t been around these places when I was still there. Anyway, nice to have you back.[:D]
yo guys im new,what is the rank for and how does it go up???
from=panzer striker
Welcome to the Armour Forum panzer striker. Good to have you join us.
The ranking system is based on the number of posts that you make.
Don’t worry … a few more posts and you’ll no longer be “snap-together”.
Welcome back Dwight, nice pics too. Allthough it makes me feel bad that a piece of arty thats been sitting around for who knows how long has better tires than I’ve had on some of my cars.
I believe the AA guns are of the same type as used at Udorn RTAFB in the 60’s or 70’s, possibly eastern block manufacture(note star stamped in ammo box[?] lid).
Alex: I got these from Clark AFB. These were relocated from Villamor AFB in Manila.
Chris: Most of the 105’s here get a lot of action in fighting with the rebels down south and the military is good in keeping them in shape. Besides, these 105’s are very old and withouth proper maintenance they would be worthless.
Derek: That AA gun is really puzzling me, maybe you are correct.
Thanks guys.
I’ve heard the rank goes from snap together to ‘god’ (no not ‘the’ God, just ‘a’ god… I think ‘Sherm’ is close to the latter by now. He’ll make it instantly if he invites us all to the buffet he’s hosting. (at least I heard he was hosting one!)
Ron.
