[QUOTE="Whiskeyman, post: 429059, member: 13556"] Nice shots; very nice shots. It looks like you know how to handle that rig well. A few fellows I flew with a time ago went to the Avalon Air Show in 1999 (I believe), and they were very impressed with the people there, both running the show and attending the show. They got to do a bit of sight-seeing while they were there and had a very enjoyable experience with that as well. (Crews always wanted to attend overseas airshows as it gave them opportunities to travel we normally didn't get, as well as the opportunity to meet new people. As far as these went, shows in Australia were usually wanted the most due to the great hospitality they encountered there.) One of the crew was retiring shortly after they returned and brought back over thirty cases of Victoria Bitter for his party. We took a photo of him and all of it stacked up by the airplane and framed the photo and his US Customs declaration form to present to him as a gift. Thanks for conjuring up the memory. :D WM [/QUOTE]
