Just started to watch this show on local cable network.

Kinda corny and the cockpit shots are hokey as hell but it's still enjoyeable.

Seeing the F4's, Vals, Kates and Zekes is worth it all :D

The Corsairs were modified AT-6's???

And that was before much CGI!  Boy those hollywood special effects guys are good.

They used the same planes for "Baa Baa Black Sheep" aka "Black Sheep Squadron".  In fact, those Zekes and Vals perform at air shows from time to time, complete with pyrotechnics.

Other than the scum on the windscreen, it looks like it still flies.  Does it?
