Burnet Airshow Report - April 9, 2011

Here are a few pics that I shot.

I like the Vietnam stuff but I think they should play some more songs in the background and not just Satisfaction over and over

I have always thought these two types should do Heritage Flight, or at least a formation flight.






Can you say P-40

A few more photos of a certain black airplane...







And the A-26




One of my current students is also a friend. One of the first guys he flew with back in Kansas is now the A-10 West Demo pilot.

My one huge regret is that the helmetcam I rigged up had a low battery and I didn't realize it. I started the video, but didn't get the flight like I intended to.

Here's a video I did take with my point and shoot...

Aerojock....thanks for mentioning the music. We (the flyers in Vietnam routinue) can't hear and have no idea what the announcers are saying and playing. I might just make a mix of era appropriate music to hand out to some of the announcers.

I really like your presentation and I hope you did not take my comment the wrong way. I like the tempo of Satisfaction, I think more songs like that would work. I don't know the lyrics but I like the tempo of the Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black". They used it as the theme song for Tour Of Duty. Here is the youtube link for the show's opening. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z6fcd--354.

others you might thinks about
Stepenwoolf
Clapton
Beatles
Beach Boys
The Who
The Guess Who
The Doors
The Kinks
Led Zepplin
Hendrix

Youtube has some great ideas yuo can check out.

I hope this helped

No offense taken....as I said, we have no idea what the announcer is playing or saying. But it would help if a CD is presented like the acro guys do. So Thanks.
