I'm guessing it opens with the Blue Angels in Bearcats.   :aok

No sound.

Wow.

Don't worry about the lack of sound.  Great stuff in that clip.  P-38s, P-63s, Vampires, large B-29 formations, and even a B-36 formation low-level fly-by.

Takes me back to the days of 8mm wind-up, expensive-to-develop-film cameras, when you had to pick and choose what you shot.

Really wonderful video, thanks!
