I took these from the back of Nervous Energy a while back...when it was in TX.

Heading to Randolph AFB

A shot of Thunderbird.

This pic was taken later on. I was in the back of a friends Seafury.

I was in the tail of the B-25 for these shot's heading towards Maxwell AFB.

I remember watching guys working on this plane at Ezell's during the Breckenridge shows, banging out dents in her hide where rocks had been thrown in as ballast when it was in south america to keep it from blowing around...she sure came a long way and looks spectacular today...great pics of her, especially the banking ones....I think one of the BEST angles to shoot a Corsair from is the back 3/4 angle when it banks away, it has such grace...

Looks like you had some fun...

I like the shot of the Corsair banking away with Moody Gardens and the LSFM in the background. Thanks for sharing!
