This Avenger taxies in after a flight demonstration at the Hollister airshow.  Grumman outsourced the production of this classic design in 1943 to General Motors.  Avengers  manufactured by GM were designated TBM.  First flown in 1941, the Avenger served various countries as late as 1960.  Actor Paul Newman was a rear gunner in one during the war.  Nikon D7100 w/18-200mm.
