i understand that, but i suspect that there's a LOT more than you or i know about that they need to look into.

That's possible.

i think that was an airshow in the uk....think it was a pony and a skyraider that touched......


No, it was an air race, the aircraft were Extras and Sukhois and what not.   I'm pretty sure it was a Red Bull race but I can't find anything on it.

 that would be due to the fact that during the red bull air races, there is only ONE aircraft in the air at a time.

Found the one I was thinking of.  It was a Grand Prix race in Malta:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5cbfePm1q4&feature=related

Too much risk to the brand. "Red Bull gives you wings" does not work well with a pic of some poor schmuck having a fatal crash into a river.

that would be truth in advertisement as the guy would get wings in heaven of course the small print should say unless you are a sinner.
