Infact asked Crew Captain why take a risk coming if say aircraft was to go tech..

Devil any idea??

why the Russian weren't there showing off their SU-35/37?
well still worth the money.. the might reds were amazing, one of the thunderbird's female pilot crossed the spectators line just above me low level, it was awesome.. i quite enjoyed the sunday show.. but heard the saturday show was much better..

Cool Black SeaHawks

Only one of the Pilots is an ex Red and also one of the engineers is an ex Red.

...I was referring to the Falcons and the Hawks. Believe one of the Falcons was driven by a very recent ex-Red also.

Anyway, my main point was that they looked very good
