I saw a three ship; a Harvard, A T-6, and a Yak doing some parade flyovers. It ws really cool and fun to see.
Oh yeah, I saw them from the back seat of a T-33 that was the lead of a two ship T-33 formation doing the same! The Waukesha Warbirds strike again! I was with our T33driver, Paul Keppeler and the second Canadair CT33 was Jim Allen's, piloted by Carl Schwerman.
Still flying high today, not sure how long it takes to come back to earth after some 6 G pulls.
Am I lucky or what? 
While we were getting ready, the PT-26 was doing some pattern work here at UES, so that counts as 6 I saw on the 4th.

Cheers,
