Re: Three Golden Knights Injured During Night Practice Jump

Just saw a segment on the evening news, they played the 911 call. The medic on scene reported multiple spinal injuries, with jumpers unable to feel/move their limbs. Two of three were said to be in critical condition. Certainly doesn't sound good.

Re: Blue Angels Comment on Super Hornet Transition

As far as aircraft stress goes, the low break cross is probably the most intense maneuver for the diamond. I hope they keep it though, because I like watching it. They still have the dirty roll if the dirty loop is an issue.

July 6 Cedar Creek Lake updated, MiG-17F & T-37 July 6-7 Goshen, MiG-17F Two shows two thousand miles apart on the same day? Guess he's got a second pilot? Greg Howell has been flying the MiG-17 1613 at some shows, but I’m leaning more towards it being a mistake. The whole schedule has some ser...
