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

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.

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