Now that is one OUTSTANDING addition to the lineup! A rare MiG on the North American air show circuit for sure. Thanks Michael, and Merry Christmas to all.

Saw the Brietling team perform at the Reno Air Races, I thought they put on a nice smooth show, somewhat like watching the Canadian Snowbirds.

Excited about the MiG-23 and looking forward to some interesting helicopters and other warbirds!

Hopefully we will receive the first 2016 announcement on an addition to the lineup soon......

And sorry I should have said about the Breitling Team, I took lots of photos last year at WOH. So I had my fill. They are a good team just I know their whole routine.

Michael, it's only January and you're starting to whip the eggbeater fans into a froth!

Keep up the good work. :drink3:
