Remember seeing that a few months back. Love it.

Very nice!
But I bet after the first airing the TV station would be flooded with calls from "concerned parents" outraged at the shot of the kids playing with Witchcraft's waist guns.

I was recently sent a video of a Lucky Strike add which featured the Evergreen Corsair. Anyone familiar with this one?

Any one remember a B-17 one with a beer commercial.

Two fighters were also involved in that shoot, Reg flying the P-51D Gunfighter and myself flying the original CAF FM-2 Wildcat. Problem was, aside from finding the photo site about 60 miles or so from Midland (Reg at one point said something like, "back in a minute" and went down to read the name on the side of a town's water tower - neither of us were from/familiar with West Texas at that time) and we were basically told to follow the B-17G Sentimental Journey's lead for the shot but at a few tens of feet above the West Texas desert floor following the B-17 at very low altitude to "pop up" for the cameras, we, the fighters, were about beaten into the sand. So we didn't make the cut, it seems. I do have the footage shot on the filming site on the ground showing the film crew hitting the deck on one of the lowest passes of the B-17 and Reg and I then flying past but... Just another day in the life of a CAF pilot back then.

DontmesswithTexas is a clumsy site. I couldnt get it to do anything. I really liked the early nineties commercial where two rednecks pitch their beer cans and then the FiFi rises up behind them. YEAHH!
