Rick Mercer flies with CHAA and CH2A at Windsor Airshow

Wed Oct 05, 2011 11:21 pm

Thought you guys would like to see Canadian TV show host/comedian Rick Mercer flying with our Harvards and CH2A's Stearman at Windsor Airshow a few weeks ago.
The show just aired Tuesday night.

(keep an eye out for the four-ship takeoff... we don't have an opportunity to do that very often)

Here's a few of my shots:

Rick is in HWX (#46/AJ583)

WIXer Eric Dumigan (AIRIC) was lucky enough to be in the #4 ship for the formation.

My brother had a hoot with him off camera, waiting for the weather to lift for the F-86. Lots of fun.

Is it my imagination, or does he not spring out of the Stearman, after the aeros, like he did after the form trip in the Harvard? :wink:
