I used to watch XM606 every year at Barksdale when she would cross over for Bomb Comp and airshows. Way past 90-degrees at low-level with the gear extended and I remain impressed!

The story of XH558 is one of tireless perseverance and dedication. I salute all those involved. 8)

Easy - just pay.

It's good to 'see' it in the air. Thanks for sharing, Nick.

Those are some great shots. The P-40 marvelous shot, and the Seafire, really nice angle. All the others are great too. I wish I could have been there.

Cheers,

David
