B-17 & B-25 Over Saguaro Lake, AZ

http://vimeo.com/18135369

The photography is HD, the planes are gorgeous, and, most notably, it is shot as the B17 takes off from Falcon Field in Mesa, AZ and then flies over the Superstition Mountains. to the east of Apache Junction and then on to Roosevelt & Canyon lakes on the east edge of the Phoenix valley. The backdrops are stunning. Music is from the mini seriers John Adams. Great combo

Do you happen to know what the music is?

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
