The air show was
Fantastic! our UH-34D performed a pilot down rescue hoisting two downed pilots to
safety. Flying with us in the show were three O2A's observation aircraft, these
aircraft were used
during the Vietnam War. Also flying with us was a F58 and a Russian Mig.
15 B25's were there
at the show and they all flew in two formations. What a wonderful sight to see
these Warbirds all flying at the same time. |

Our flight was a long 5.4 hours to
arrive and a SUPER LONG 9.5 hours to get home due to 40 knot head winds.
The show had many beautiful aircraft both as static and flying in the show.
The air show was Fantastic! we
performed a Vietnam medevac reenactment of a wounded marine. We had some
volunteer Marines from Camp LeJeuene NC that assisted us with the reenactment.
We had fun doing the performance and everyone watching enjoyed it very much. We
got nothing but positive compliments for our reenactment. |
