Nice wingtip vorticies!

They should have just turned the smoke off and used nature's own, moisture induced "smoke". :D

Found these two in a French speaking forum after following a handful of links from ASB and FC, but couldn't decipher the photographer's name. Good pictures though...

You get a real sense of size here...

I'm assuming each team was represented by #1... a little wing time never hurt the Boss! ;)

Actually, Toris (#4) was flying Blue #1 and I think either Combo or Gat was flying T-Bird #1. Not sure who was flying the Reds jet. And for the reason you outlined LD, the Boss' are leads, they haven't flown tight formation for quite some time. Snowbird #1 was flown by their Flight Leader.

Thanks!

If any of my VTB brethren would like that or both of those shots at print quality, PM me and I'll send you a copy of both.

I was standing near or next to Steve for pretty much the whole show. You can hear how loud that shutter is on my camera!
