Ken asked me to post a video of our trip to Roseburg, Oregon from back in 2005. It was a great trip and we got to see some pretty cool flying.

I was flying John Ward's TB-25N on the right wing Harold Kinsdvater in the P-51D Straw Boss while Skip Holm was having a ball in Harold's HA-1112 Buchon. Man the paint looks good and in some of the video scenes it looks just like the WWII films we all love.

Steve took some of the still shots out of the back of the B-25 and of Getch in the Sea Fury. I think if one of the 2600's barked for a second Getch would have bumped the camera lens with his spinner. He is a great stick and fun to fly with.

Here is the video on YouTube:

Here are a few stills. Is there any way to embed videos?

Nice video and photos. You weren't kidding when you said that Skip's last pass was "low and tight". I'm pretty sure his cockpit was under your wingtip.
