Title: Indy Air Show Pics !
Post by: jordi on September 07, 2002, 10:19:58 PM

The good news is my video Camer worked.

The bad news it that it ran out of JUICE Just as the AIR SHOW part was about to start !

Also my Digital cameras batteries were dead. They worked fine a week ago or so ? !

( ENJOY ! )

The show was even BETTER than last year.

Lots of planes - Great weather ( Got burned ! Go figure ) Great company - Alpo and his friends , Seadog and his wife, Dale nad Ed from the 223 group, Gramps and Joe "Impaler" from my B17-2 Group - and TERRI !

Best parts were . ..

The Bi-plane with the Jet engine - just too WIERD to hear a Jet engine on a Biplane !

The Legends flight of an A10 and a P51, and even better - 5 Corsiars and the F-18.

The Red Baron team on thier final Performances - they did some amazing stuff !

The F018 coming in HIGH SPEED from behind the crowd - No one saw it till we heard it a few seconds later !

Everyone had a GREAT TIME !

We need MORE to attend NEXT YEAR !

Mike and Terri Bowman

Thanks Jordi for another year of putting this together. I wished I could have spent more time. I really wanted to talk to you. It was good to see you and your wife again and meet some new faces.
     I HOPE THE NEXT CON WILL BE IN INDY ! hint hint ;)  Is that loud enough?

Jordi hosted a great Con before in 2000.  Indy sounds great.  Would be nice to move the Con around.

Great pics Jordi! Thanks for sharing. :)

I have seen that B-25H flying around up here (You know the drill, in the house, hear radials, run outside without tripping, and gape! :) -)  In fact they had it on the Chicago news up here, if it's the one I think it is. It's based out of Aurora Illinois. Did they fly it in the show, or was it only on static display? The pic that shows a B-25 flying appears to be a bomber version, i.e., not the gun nose.
