I do believe those two first pics are Beech T-34 Mentors. (Nice to be back here, by the way.)

The pizza connection flies here on 1941 Boeing Stearman Biplanes and the Fat Albert is a C330 Hercules Transporter

Hey, nice pics! Can't resist your call for help, so here goes: Pic 3548 is, of course, the mighty Boeing B-52H bomber (sister ship 0042 was at the Royal International Air Tattoo at Fairford AFB in the UK in July) Pics 3582 and 3583 are the A-10 Warthog tank buster. Pic 3599 shows the A-10 with an F-16 and a vintage P-51D Mustang. 3610 is the KC-135 Stratotanker (not reengined with the newer CFM56 engines) 3616 is the Aerospatiale HH-65 Dolphin, a European design built for US forces in Texas. (There are 96 machines of this version around) 3618 thru 3627 are the Harvards (or T-6 Texan) of the AeroShell team. Air shows are great fun! Looking forward to your next posting!
