Aggressor Supporter Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Great video! I particularly enjoyed the F-100s doing their thing. The venerable B-52s and C-130 Hercules is timeless! Link to post Share on other sites

Toad Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Wow ! Thanks for sharing that one ! B-58 was awesome to see, as was the herc demo. I think my favorite part was the 100 shooting a missile and then shooting it down ! Link to post Share on other sites
OKB Krasnaya Zvezda Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I would LOVE to see a B-52 pass.... trowing the full load of Mk-82 Link to post Share on other sites

Andre Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I would LOVE to see a B-52 pass.... trowing the full load of Mk-82 I would love it even more from a safe distance. ;-) Cheers, Andre Link to post Share on other sites
Aaron Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 That is definitely the coolest video I have seen in a long time. I think it is time to watch Strategic Air Command again. Link to post Share on other sites
Julien (UK) Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Wow, I think I just drooled over my keyboard. That is cool. I loved the B-58 and the formation B-52 flyby, not often you see Buffs in formation like that. Airshows were much cooler back then, live fire demos and formation napalm dropping. Now we need an arcer to invent the time machine so we can go back and shoot that in digiatal colour! Julien Link to post Share on other sites
viper50 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Thanks for posting that for us. The tall tailed B-52s look great and the B-58 is so cool. I really would have loved to see a B-58 in a fly-by at an air show. One of the few planes I never got to see. I remember my first airshow from around 1960-1961. We were stationed at Ft. Richardson, AK. and my dad took us over to Elmendorf AFB and I got my first taste of airplanes flying all over the place. Got to see the T-Birds flying F-100s and all the other aircraft of that era. As an eight year old, I was in heaven. Gotta love that era of aircraft. Don M. Link to post Share on other sites
