WOW!! nice flight of fighters... almost beats the 60 or so T-6s we had going to oshkosh from kenosha one year (1996,8?? cant remember i was young)


Seeing that Hawk is pretty neat is that the only one flying?

Sixty T-6s isn't bad!

For the last decade the Flying Legends airshow has finished with a Balbo of usually around thirty-plus aircraft; all frontline fighter, bomber or reconnaissance types as a rule. It's an amazing job to put together, usually multi-national pilot team, including some famous names from the USA; and while the Balbo is in the circuit (usually) Stephen Grey flies a 'joker' routine in the type of his choice.

Some years ago Stephen Grey flew the Bearcat, Ray Hanna the Sea Fury, and that was an unbeatable 'best of the best' session.

Then there's the run and sections break, pairs run and landing...

Yup, only Curtiss 75 flying.
