Hagar's nice shots reminded me of one of a few lesser-quality pictures I haven't shown here yet... this one is from the Wings of Eagles show at Elmira-Corning Regional Airport back in 1995, I believe. The pilot did some mild aerobatics that day, but my lousy camera couldn't really capture it at a distance. This shot is pretty close-up, though... Grin The crowd was trusted to be careful along the taxiway, and all got to get close enough to feel the propwash.

Man, I can still hear and smell that beast like it was yesterday...

The only place I know like that here is Popham. Not sure how long it will remain like it.
