Video: Rob Holland Shows Us What He Sees During a Performance

Tuesday, December 18th, 2007

Well, it is the off-season, and it’s not like I’ve got lots of upcoming or imminent or recently past shows to babble on about, so I’ll have to settle for sharing cool content I’ve found. This video comes to us courtesy of AirShowBuzz, where pilot Rob Holland happens to be a member and regular visitor, along with many other big names like “Max” Moga of the F-22 Raptor demo team, and lots of other current and past performers. In this video, Rob slapped a helmet cam on and recorded his entire demo from start to finish, and tossed in some good music to kick it up a notch- as if Rob’s aerobatics needed to be kicked up any more.

2008 Big Team Schedules Out… Time To Start Planning…

Friday, December 14th, 2007

So, this past Monday, the "Big Three" of North American teams released their 2008 show schedules.  This is enough for me to go ahead and start thinking about where I wanna go in 2008.  To a certain extent, I’m in a worse situation now than I was the last few years.  I moved here to Chattanooga about five months ago, and it’s not quite the central location for big shows that Raleigh was.  In Raleigh, I had Langley and Oceana both about three and a half hours away, Cherry Point about two hours away, and Seymour Johnson and Pope AFB/Fort Bragg within an hour.  Add in the on-again, off-again Coastal Carolina Airshow in Wilmington, (~2 hours) and I was in a good spot.  Not so much here.
