I'll see what can be done. Hell, I've always admired those who can do
aerobatics. I have a different skill set but that doesn't mean I can't
appreciate skillful flying of whatever type.

I have no doubt my early attraction to aviation was intensified quite a bit by
watching good flying. Some of my fondest childhood memories were of Armed
Forces Day, when the base aircraft would be open for everybody to crawl through.
It was a real treat for kids. We had the Thunderbirds come through Lajes Field
in the Azores once and I can remember sitting up on the hillside looking down on
the F-100s as they flew *below* us.

Pretty damned neat stuff.
