I have no idea if Sean pulled any strings to get the SOT in the EAA
lineup, but with all the backing they have from other big-names in the
airshow business, I doubt it was necessary.


You make many good points, Scott. And I have no way to refute them.

However, the fact remains that one of the best new airshow performers in the
country, Skip Stewart -- a guy who has recently been written up and profiled
in half a dozen top-notch aviation magazines as being THE up-and-comer in
the airshow industry -- sat on the ground WITH HIS PLANE, itching to go up,
while three relative unknowns took to the skies over OSH.

That is crap, IMHO, and stinks of nepotism, whether it was or not.
