THEN....2 minutes into the show....everything shut down. #6 was reporting a problem with her altimeter. Took about 5 minutes...but ultimately it was...

I agree...but nothing is ever a given. There are plenty of olympic atheletes..and even just atheletes that have dropped over during games, practices or even just at a shopping mall. These folks are also in the best physical shape...same as these pilots. Even with a flight surgeon checking them daily...

Thoughts and prayers to LCDR Kevin Davis' family. Today...Sunday, April 22 CNN has a video showing his plane go down. Interesting....he was cutting around to do a re-join to the delta. He just falls out of the sky into the tree line. Could be a malfunction or could he have had a immediate health iss...

Well...DUH ! We just never thought about looking in the Sorenson Squeeze options... We have tons of pre-sets we've built...so we don't go to the list often. There they are ...1080p and 720p. We though we needed to download a codec from Microsoft to be able to do the compress. Thanks Again....and kee...

WMV HD Movie... How ?

Hey guys...Your video is awesome...as you already know. I have one question...how did you enocde your video into the WMV HD video ? I'm a video producer...and have searched everywhere on the internet and not found any type of codec to compress into this WMV HD form. I feel silly...asking this since ...

Deerskin flight gloves... Where can you get them?

Where do the real Thunderbirds get their flight gloves ? The deerskin ones with a flag painted on them.

I've only seen some wide shots....and never any close up shots of the gloves.

Seems they went away from the nomex versions.

Anyone know ?
