Paul,

Today while at lunch in Camarillo, I saw what I think was a Northrop Flying
Wing.  It was piston powered, twin engine, pusher prop, and cruising along
at a pretty good clip.  It was flying North and was about a mile North-East
from the Camarillo Airport.

Any word on this?  Or was I seeing a UFO :-)

I remember something about a flying wing being found a few years ago in a
warehouse, and a group was restoring it.

Was it Yellow? If so that is the restored Northrop Flying Wing.

You did indeed see the restored flying wing from Planes of Fame. It was at
Camarillo
which was the staging area for the air show staged by the Quiet Birdmen during
their annual barbecue bash at the Broome ranch in the mountains south of
Camarillo. Also present included a Corsair,Yak 3,and a full aerobatic act with an

Edge, and also a Zlin Vance
