BillyVance 34 #1 July 10, 2008 Strange to see this end up on youtube's UK site, but my godfather sent the link to me. Old Glory has rarely looked better. Who did the jump? The info is at the right of the video screen. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=iCz3BA-oNlY "Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matthewcline 0 #2 July 10, 2008 I guess saying didn't you listen to the narrator would be stupid huh? Paul McGowan made the jump. MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I'm known well enough on here that I don't have to repeat the phrase "I'm fucking deaf!" again and again.

futuredivot 0 #8 July 10, 2008 Billy-not to rub it in or anything-but me and Phree were there at the Gathering. The jump looked great live. Not to mention the rows and rows of Mustangs on the ramp You are only as strong as the prey you devour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to mention the rows and rows of Mustangs on the ramp Cool... I can see it was a big show. I've had two Mustangs myself. A '93 hatchback (nothing special) and a nice '96 coupe. The '93 hatchback went 298K miles before the engine conked out (per the guy I sold it to). Edited to add: I've done demos with a guy who had a flag like that. Maybe half that big. It's impressive. Especially when exit altitude was 2000 feet.

PhreeZone 15 #10 July 11, 2008 Wrong type of Mustang there Billy. This was the Gathering of Mustangs and Legends where they had assembled the largest gathering of P-51 Mustangs in the world since WWII had occured. they had over 80 flying P-51's at the airshow. Paul flies a very large flag and puts on a great show with the Red Baron team circling him. The flag is very large, it was the largest being flown on a regular basis until the last 2-3 years.

BillyVance 34 #11 July 11, 2008 Ah, sorry. The air show I did was a wings and wheels show, combination of cars and planes. That was what was in my mind when I posted that.

futuredivot 0 #12 July 12, 2008 Glad we got to see the Barons one last time. I was crushed when Ryan called to tell me they were disbanded. Multiple planes circling jumpers is coolest. Aeroshell Team does a killer job at it as well...Don't they Twardo?You are only as strong as the prey you devour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigairnut 0 #13 July 12, 2008 This is an awesome video. I went to the eteamskydivers website and in the gallery section there is a photo of this flag during a jump that is now my desktop wallpaper. Sweet! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
