Wait.... you let someone ELSE fly the Mohawk?

Quick, someone check his temperature and make sure he wasn't talking to the Bombshells. That's got to be the only way he could ever not fly - someone took it when he wasn't looking. ;)

Great video by Scott and great flying by all involved. Loved seeing the performance at Alliance this year, even if it was from the back by the CAP planes.

I wonder who the "handsome young" co-pilot of the Skyraider is? :D

Kevin was flying the T-28. Didn't see the Bombshells, although with Doug flying the Caribou, they may have been the people inside the Caribou who were having difficulty holding onto their cheese balls!

That big Skyraider is kind of a cool airplane.

Sure is Eric, and I have been blessed to have had the privilege of right seat time in that aircraft with the likes of Stu Dawson, Stu Milson and Ronnie Gardner as P1.

Yes. In the air to air sequences, Stu Dawson = Wildcat, Ronnie Gardner = Mohawk, Doug Jeannes and Bob Warner = Caribou, Stu Milsom and Julian Banks = Skyraider, Kevin Raulie = T28, Doug Jeannes = OH-13.

Stu Milson is a first class guy. We had a blast flying together at TOM 2009. Anytime you get 3 Spads together you know it's going to be fun.
