This is what I’m looking forward to most this year. Never seen it in person before.

Oh dear god...

Just finished watching the whole video, it actually looks a little hairy at the 2:00 minute mark, the thing was losing altitude at a spooky rate in that bank before they leveled and powered out.

Power to spare. The thing must fly like a giant fighter.

2002, forth of July, Zilker park, Austin TX, Austin Symphony, and one of theses did a flyover, sneaking (as much as it could) up from behind before it got over the crowd hit the afterburners and pulled up and away. It was AWSOME!!

Has the flyover of the three bombers been nailed down to a time yet? I want to try and stop by, but not sure if I’ll get near EAA or just watch from afar...

I have no idea. Everybody is at AirVenture and I’m just sitting here writing about airplanes and stirring the politics pot on Oppo.
