Don't feel bad if you can't use your STD100/200; there are still people using Digital Frequency Search!

Question- before the TBirds flew, each pilot sang a short 4 line or so rhyme over the show freqs- this usual?

Thanks for the posting, I was too lazy to go look them up :)

I, well the whole family, went to the show Saturday on the base, it was awesome and yes it was worth the sunburn through 2 layers of sunscreen, the expensive food you had to stand in long lines for and the nightmare traffic of leaving the base.

Probably one of the few times I would have prefered to have a hand held that I could have brought with me instead of my less portable bc785 though I was enjoying myself so much I didn't even bother taking photos during the flight demonstrations.

The Tora Tora Tora flight was something different from most airshows I've been to, they did a good job of creating controlled chaos between the explosions & aircraft passing in all directions. The one that really caught my attention was when one of the 'zeros' was coming straight on at us and he was yawing the plane left and right on a strafing run...I was very thankful it wasn't the real thing!

Everyone landed safely, there were no major incidents, you couldn't have asked for better weather from WA state.
