Latest chapter....spent the day doing a video shoot about the Cobra. Should be lots of good shots...the UK based crew was in Thunder Bay, South Africa before coming here. They shot Buc's and Lightnings (English blowtorch types I guess), and will hit a few other places here in the US and then the Cold Lake Air show in Canada before putting their Television special together. Should be a very interesting program when they get it out.

Boss Fellah showed off the Cobra...I flew the camera bird. Made for some very interesting flying....wondered what the Boss meant when he said "You will be the target...I will make the pass." Now Cobra's are a pretty impressive sight from that angle, altitude, and rate of closure! He enquired after one pass...how did that look....did not have the heart to tell him I had my eyes closed!
