Nice!  Afro Way better than mine! Glad someone caught it.


That's beautiful!

I also found out from Mike that the Thunderbirds will not appear at next year's Aviation Nation. The Thunderbirds season ending show next year will be in Dubai. The TBirds aren't happy about it, but the Pentagon has spoken. Mike told me that Aviation Nation has requested the Blue Angels for the 2009 show. They havent heard whether or not they will get the Blues

That's CRAZY. Why don't they move Aviation Nation to a date that the Thunderbirds could make? Does Aviation Nation have to be just before Veteran's Day? And I'm guessing the Dubai airshow is also on a fixed date. Dang. As for "The Pentagon has spoken", what does that mean? And who exactly gets to decide where the Tbirds fly, anyways? I guess I always assumed it was someone on the team (one of the 100, not one of the 6) or at Nellis, but I can't see any of them choosing Dubai over Aviation Nation...


As a certain aerobatic pilot might say... "Yeah baby!!!"

I wondered as well and then double-wondered if Ritz did it on purpose because it was Wild's last ride. The water did seem to hit just aft of Ritz, did it not? I wouldn't think you'd risk getting that cockpit "stuff" wet, but what do I know? Possibly on purpose for Wild?

It was a great show!  I was really looking forward to next years show until I found out the Thunderbirds won't be there Cry
