I saw this team perform at McChord AFB back in the mid 80s.  I recall the performance as being one of the best I have ever seen.  It is appropriate to here to express my sympathies to all those associated with that military flying demonstration team and to provide the time honored Salute.

Just last week there was segment on a show on the Discovery Channel about the SBs.

The show was about their airshow qualification.

RIP Shawn.
