You all put on a great show! Excellent flying and very nice routine, I enjoyed it. That L-39 is a pretty jet.
I was surprised to hear how many G's (4-5 I think I heard?) were pulled in some of the diamond turn arounds. In my tryout flights with the VTB's I think the Diamond 360 is tough at 3 G's, PIO often rears its ugly head during that one
Looking forward to some more shows from the V. Patriots

Singleton turnarounds maybe? The Diamond turnarounds took an awful long time if 4-5Gs.
Awesome inaugural show VPJT! A little too quick in the middle possibly and slow towards the end in contrast, but very enjoyable! I enjoyed hearing Striker narrate, hehe. Keep up the good work everyone!
@SilentEagle, good job on the camera! A lot of prep work setting up all those views for sure, and I'd have to say very gutsy move to use dynamic views during a live performance as well.

I think that narration is what the real team uses but I am not clear on that...plus Striker got that narration around the day before the show.

Here are just a few screenshots from our live show on 09/11/09. I've included a zip file at the bottom with all these and more, 50 screenshots total. Resolution is 16/9 @ 1280x720.
Great looking screenshots Blaze! That's a very nice model/skin, accurate down to the vortex generators on the underside of the horizontal stab

Yeah Ray, that was just a script error.
Highest G count in the turnarounds is 2.2 if I am off on the timing.

Thank you LD. We had alot of fun flyling it, and it was very special to me personally since I haven't been flying for 4 years. So, to get back in the saddle and put on a show like that felt really good.
As far as the show's speed... Yeah, it's a bit fast compared to most teams because we don't have a Diamond working with Solos, the aft part of the show seems slow because theres no more craziness.
It's a very fun demo for me because I finally get to do some SOLO stuff again.
