Just couldn't lurk around here anymore. Had to register & post about the Wings over wine country show here in Santa Rosa this weekend. It was a good teaser for Reno this year in a couple weeks. Brian flew another spectacular smoke routine in Argonaut. Unfortunately it was the only Fury on hand but worth the price of admission alone! Plenty of other big iron there though. P51s on hand and doing lots of fly-by passes were speedball Alice, merlin's magic, comfortably numb, red dog XII, lady Alice, and sparky. Will went up with them in Steadfast and thrilled everyone with his screamin FAST LOW photo passes (as always Will you are quite the showman and a true class act). Dan circled above until all the mustangs and the yak had landed. He then put on a magnificent aerobatic show in speedball Alice.
Probably one of the more memorable moments was after the show was over as I was killing time waiting for the wife to pick me up. I see Brian Sanders and Dan Vance go walking down the Tarmac toasted the parking lot. Soon they were walking back and Dan had his flightsuit. I thought this had to be good so I watched as they pushed Argo back and Dan strapped in as Brian stood on the wing going over some sort of procedures or the like for a few minutes. Wish I could have been a fly in that cockpit. Anyway, Dan took off and my wife arrived. Can't wait til Reno!!! Gonna be a good year for the Sea Furies!!!
