Good to see them back.

Now we just need an F-22 demo and it'll be a great airshow between the races.

That BD5-J was sweet! One of 2 built, I think.

But I hear they had lots of problems due to the fact it was orignaly designed to be a prop.
Also the BD guys didnt come through with thier kits as promissed. Parts missing, plans not correct, crap tech support, and a law suit if memory servs.


Back on topic.

All 3 err... 4 acts would make for one sweet show betwien races!

Heck why not call in the French, Italian, and Brazilian teams. Then it was be smoken. All these guys were at Abbotsford 1986 for the airshow during the worlds exposition. The Concord was there as well. We got to park our yellow and brown Cessna 175 between a Sea Fury and a P51 on the flight line after ground control directed us off across a field and into an unmarked over grown unseen hole in the ground. It curled the prop tips quite nicely. My father was less than happy as well as another of the partners in the plane who just happened to be there as well. I'll leave it at that before I get too far off topic.

How about a dogfight between the F22 and Kent Pietsch?

LOL!

Honestly I'm not sure it would be fair for the F22.

While that would be one hellacious show, do you have any idea of what the cost would be? They don't come free.
