       YAK-55 SHOW

The most common reaction to this show is that “airplanes don’t fly like that.”
The tumbles are  slow motion magic in the air. This may be the busiest, non
stop, no pauses, air show ever presented in perceived slow motion.

The T-6 Show
This show, among the best
T-6 acts in the world, begins with a snap  roll on take off, and finishes with a gliding loop ta a landing. There are no, just normal type, maneuvers in this show.
The Canadian Armed Forces CF-18 and Bud's Harvard have joined up at many airshows. My priviledge to be part of Canada's Heritage Flights.
