There is a Spitfire, Vampire and Meteor all scheduled to be at Oshkosh this year, so...maybe :D

You'll be doing quite well to beat the Aussies - Brisfit and Super Hornet!

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's never been done in North America before.

It was a great show! Very grass-roots and friendly and happy. Great Lakes International Airshow -- thank you!

I had fun, and so did Robin.

This is taken from my helmet-cam, a Sony AS-50, which is quite a wide-angle. It's a new piece of kit for me, and I'm quite impressed. Great video, and great sound.

Jon Edwards has edited together a short video clip of footage from my helmet-cam and his own video from the ground.
