That's a cool heritage flight.

I have that pic as well.... Posted it under my Modern Combat thread..... Excellent shot I agree....

Nice shot.

 

[evangilder]

Heritage flights are becoming pretty common themes at airshows these days. I never grow tired of them.

 

[lesofprimus]

If that flight included the F-86, it would have been perfect....

 

[evangilder]

Like this?

 

[lesofprimus]

Close but no cigar.... I was referring to the Air Superority concept, ie P51, F86, F4, F15, F22....

But I still love the top shot of urs....

 

[evangilder]

Yeah, that would be a cool one. There are a few F-86s still around. Maybe one day we will see a flight like that.

 

[Gnomey]

Maybe, would be great. Nice shot all the same despite not having an F-86.

 

[Dac]

cool shots...

Seeing the P-26 with the other aircraft makes you realize how fast the technology evolved in the 1930s and 40s.

I remember my dad telling me about one of those flights with a Spitfire, Lightning and Tornado. The Spitfire was flat-out, Lightning was nearing stall speed and Tornado was cruising. I bet that Lightning pilot was crapping his pants, once a Lightning stalls it takes on the flight characteristics of a lead ball.

There's a shot out there of the Glostor Gladiator, Meteor and Javelin all flying in formation, with the Meteor it wasn't so bad but the Javelin was struggling.....
