Thank you. That is a heck of a demo in the Zero!

Thanks for the heads up. Great broadcast, nice high quality video and audio. I enjoyed seeing the Zero, Lockheeds and the Aeroshell team. 8)

As expected, a very fun show, and quality in every area. Here are just a few shots I got, though I left most of it up to others who I know will have some real quality photos of the day's events/flying. Warren Pietsch's display in the Zero was exceptional - an incredible display of the Zero's nimble flying characteristics and turn radius. I was also particularly infatuated with the Bagley P-63, an aircraft I have been dreaming for years to see in person, and Bagley did one of his elegant aerobatic displays. It was also really cool to see the two Aleutian Tiger P-40K's (both restored by Fagen/Warhawks Inc.) flying together for the first time since they were both part of the same Russian fighter squadron they were assigned to during WWII, with both being force-landed on the same mission way back in '43, as I recall - also the first time that I can recall seeing two Aleutian Tiger painted P-40's flying together since WWII (unfortunately I didn't take any photos, but I know many others certainly took some great photos of this, and they made several photo passes). It was also nice to finally see "Sierra Sue II" in the flesh, and to solve the last mystery/question I had about a certain detail on the aircraft.
