    Thanks guys... here are a few more that I liked










    It was a ride of a lifetime.... to get to see Sean in the air so close to the chase plane was amazing. He is an incredible
    pilot that words can not properly explain. When you see him fly off the wing of your airplane and during 10 minutes you
    do not see him get more than 3 feet closer or three feet further from his position, it is just amazing to see such skill.

    To flip an aircraft inverted and not get 3 feet closer or 3 feet further from his original position off the chase plane...
    Amazing is not close to the feeling. I had never seen anything like it. The closest I can come to explaining is to drive
    a car at 100mph and keep the tire 2 inches from the curb and go around a corner.... To say he is the man is an
    understatement. I was always a huge fan but had no idea how good his skill truly was up until that flight.

    He does not do anything on a whim and his preflight for the 3 aircraft photo flight was professional, well choreographed
    and did not leave much to "Winging it". The pilots knew what they were going to do in advance and were all on the same
    page.

    I had never felt more safe in ANY aircraft as when I was flying with Brian Norris with Sean just off my wing. It truly was
    a flight of a lifetime and an experience that will keep me smiling for years to come. I am forever in debt to Team Oracle
    for the experience that can not be put into words. It was for lack of a better word.....a Religious Experience... and that
    too is an understatement!

    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    Yes, I agree 100% it was the opportunity of a lifetime. I smile for hours every time I look at these photos.

    Oh well, the CF-18 and Heavy Metal Jet Team just released their 2011 schedules,
    and unfortunately the Jones Beach Air show didn't get either demo this year.
    We should still be getting one of the Hornet Demo teams from the Navy though
    and hopefully some other aircraft for the Centennial of Naval Aviation celebration !!

    Any Unconfirmed possibilities?

    Hello everyone, late to the thread as per usual. Do we have any possibilities for the show that haven't been confirmed yet? The Military schedule looks a little thin.

    Bill

    I didn't expect to get the CF-18, if we did it would have been great, but I didn't have my hopes up. I am really bummed about not getting the Heavy Metal Jet Team though. This is the perfect show for them. Unfortunately, Snort & Jive are flying with MS760 in Florida that weekend...
