Flight Leader

Here’s a still frame from my documentary, FLYING FOR THE FLAG, that shows the flight leader as the formation makes a turn.

FLYING FOR THE FLAG is available on Amazon PRIME, and you’ll learn just how the team stays close together as they fly over major events. It was a thrill to make the film and fly with some of the best pilots in the world.

Flying for the Flag, released!

My documentary, FLYING FOR THE FLAG, has been released. You can watch it on Amazon, iTunes, and many other platforms. Here’s the poster:

Hop in the cockpit with the Bandit Flight Team, America’s most active formation team. You’ll see how they stay wingtip to wingtip as they over NASCAR races, military events, and other gatherings. Enjoy!

Medevac Mastery

Was interesting to see all the options for a medevac helicopter at the HeliExpo this week.

Not only was the equipment impressive, but the pilots, flight nurses, and medics all demonstrated an exceptional level of knowledge and capability. It’s good to know there are people and equipment at the ready in case of the worst. And it’s only getting better. It’s amazing what they can pack into a flying machine. Hopefully, I never need one.

MD-80’s are retiring

After many years of venerable service, the MD-80’s in the American Airlines fleet are being retired. I had a great flight aboard one recently and had the good fortune to make his short video:

The pilots were great guys, giving me the opportunity to capture footage with my Osmo Pocket camera. Thanks to them and American Airlines.
