I had the incredible privilege to fly today with Rebel Flight. These guys used to fly T-28s every Saturday, but have all kind of drifted apart. Today, they came together for a photo shoot. These guys were awesome! Here are some samples from today's shoot.

Thanks guys. Joe, did you notice the G meter? Yeah, we had a blast! And no, Lee, I won't ever forget this one. Good group of guys doing some great formations, tucked in tight. And by the way, I am also an honorary member of Rebel Flight with the callsign "Shooter". For the photo flight our plane callsign was "Kodak". 8)
 
Thanks again guys. I was telling my wife that 5 years ago, I would have given my left nut to get an opportunity to take pictures like that. Now, I have, and didn't have to give up a testicle to do it! :evil4:

It was a couple of years in the making and it was made even more special by the fact that these guys may never be flying again together.
 
I'm there already Eric, flight two, page two, shot 14. Could you apologise to your pilot next time you see him please.
I could'nt help for dribbling down his neck, thats a brillant captivation of being aboard.
Best series of T28 shots Iv'e seen.
Thanks for the pleasure of seeing them.
 
Thanks Lee! I not only wanted to capture the guys in formations, but what it felt like to be in the rear seat. I'm sure Don wouldn't mind a little drool. He was a Skyraider pilot in Vietnam, I'm sure he's had worse!
 
Absolutely fantastic shots, once again!! I love the ones over the water. The clarity just draws your eyes to everything in the pic.

Hats off to you, "Shooter"!
