The footage is in to perspectives, from the ground and a cockpit cam on the pilot. It’s quite amazing!

]]>Glad you got a chance to see a good air show. Like you, I have grown up with them, living in an Air Force town, but I never get tired of going to them. Our next show here (Seymour Johnson AFB) is in October. Can’t wait to see the Thunderbirds again. SJAFB is an F-15E Strike Eagle base so we always have great F-15 demonstrations as well. One of the highlights is a simulated air field attack by F-15’s and A-10’s. They actually have ground crews on the other side of the flight line set off explosions as the aircraft pull out of their attacks. The heat from the explosions this past year was intense at a distance of a half-mile or so. Very impressive; hope they do that again this year! Man does not live by Civil War history alone!
