A show of hands: how many higher altitude, loose formation non-violent

About the only acro act I really enjoy are the Red Barons, who
probably do qualify as the above. Any act that subsitutes
excessive aircraft power for pilot skill will bore me quickly...

Sean Tucker is incredibly skilled but that style of performance just
doesn't appeal to me as much as the Red Barons. I love to watch them.
I also love to watch the Aeroshell T-6 team. Both of those teams fly
fantastic formations gracefully and I'd watch them again and again.

I'm always interested when somebody does aerobatics in an aircraft
similar to one that I fly, so a performance in a Cessna 150 is something
I will stop to watch.

Last year at Oshkosh when the Masters of Disaster performed I had white
knuckles the entire time.
