All I can say is I really wish I had been able to get some better angles on these beautiful birds.. Wink

Probably my favorite one of this set of shots.. Wink

Had to compress this one quite a bit to get it back under 100KB so the original is quite a bit better! Wink

No the Deke was not a part of the show, it is owned by the flight school operating out of the airport along with a symphony and 2 huskies! (No floats though...)

Nice shots, Jared. I talked to the pilot of that orange splotchy one. He said kids made the design or something. Pretty cool..

I would have chosen flames myself, but hey.

Lovely snaps Jared, and Doug I think Oracle is a communications company, but don't quote me on that Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Nice shot there Jared,

Ozzy is right in saying that they are a communications company, they deal with IT related systems and have been around since 1977.

The aircraft that they use is a "one of a kind" Oracle Challenger (Home Build) and The Pilot Is Sean Tucker.
The team has had the Honour of Flying in formation with the Thunderbirds display team and also the Blue Angels.

Pretty good for a small company/aircraft/pilot dont you think?

I appreciate that Mark but it was the easiest way to identify the aircraft I was referring to Tongue

Thanks Nemo. That's exactly what I wanted to know. Cheesy
