The link below is information on the 109th Airlift Wing, nearby, they constantly train and fly these over my house, and over the other farm, 30 miles north, which seems to be closer, but within the same radius.
I know one, thing, one of those darned things just about buzzed the tree tops, yes I am exaggerating just a little, but I have never in all my years seen one fly that low, and I never saw it coming, I was on the 3600 spreading manure, just about jumped out of the seat, scared the h$ll out of me, had no idea, they are loud at close quarters!
Ironically when the Liberty Belle, the B17 that was lost a few years back, was at this air base, it strafed the trees and I was out in the back of the barn near a pile of manure and that was quite loud, I knew what it was before it got here, wish I had video of that one, very loud as well, but I heard it coming.
I've seen them fly over here since I was a kid, I've seen the ones with the ski's on, they are a regular fixture here, mostly afternoons, and repeated short flights out and back.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
