I love the in-cockpit perspective from the Corsair doing split-S's out of the clouds over the islands. That's exactly what a WWII Marine pilot would have seen while striking barges near Rabaul, etc. What a blast its got to be to fly a dynamic display circuit around that island. The P-40 pilot kind of spooked me though with that hard pull at the bottom of his loop!

The second video was great...the first one, well, I will never understand the need or desire to put cheesy music on a warbird video that drowns out the magnificent sound of the plane's engines themselves. If you post a video of a music group playing, do you put in the sounds of a Daytona race over the music? If not, why?

Was watching a show this past weekend about crazy landings and the St Barts runway was shown and made me think of the Texas Flying Legends video shot their so I had to watch it again & again.

I spent 3 or 4 days in St Barts back in the 90's doing company work. Heck of a place and a heck of an approach to the numbers.
