Watch This Now
First of all thank you to my friend George for asking me to contribute. I am sincerely flattered.
I wanted to come up with something witty for my first post but My friend David at Third World County just sent me a link to this video and I can't stop watching it. If you enjoy watching this as much as I do we are going to get along just fine.

However, I wanted to see them dropping some bombs and blowing up the SOB terrorists. I ddin't recognize the music accompanying the clip. I'm pretty sure that it wasn't from the movie Grease.

Thank you. I am honored to share the stage with you and GM Woody.
If I have one regret in life it would be not joining the Air Force.

Great video. And I thought I was so cool putting along in my powered paraglider. I can't image going that fast.

I can't see the video, but I'm sure it's good. :^)

Thanks for the link, Rick.
Woody, I included an update linking the music--It's "The Champions" from eRa: The Mass.
Ben,
I included a link to another posting of the video in another update, in case folks were having trouble with the call to YouTube loading it. I may contact the guy who posted it at YouTube as well, since it's generated so much interest.
Vroom! Veroom! Go fast! Go really fast!
(BTW, I had some interesting comments in email from a "U.S. Air Farce [his words, not mine] bomber driver about the clip that I may also post to comments later, if I get his permission to do so.)
Truly neat stuff!
