I miss the days when the Luftwaffe was at Luke. To see their F-4s and F-104s go over was a sight to be seen.

Luke also used to be an F-15 training base.

For those who don't know, Luke was named after Frank Luke, who was known as the Balloon Buster during WWI. He was killed in Sept. 1918. He was also the first US airman to be awarded the Medal of Honor.

I have seen the B-25 up close at Chandler Regional Airpark but not the B-29.

Today and tomorrow just happen to be Luke Days. Not sure I want to go down. Temps forecasted to be 105F ( ~37C).
