That looks like the Acceptance Show from March 11th. ;)

Richard (aka 8081rt of NellisSpotters) on Youtube said he was going to record the full show, so I'm waiting for his upload. ;)

I just spoke with him and he never recorded anything from the Thunderbirds' Acceptance Show or Creech (Indian Springs Appreciation Day), but he said he had footage from Davis-Monthan this past weekend that he would upload soon along with 8 other videos from Aerospace & AZ Days.


P.S. One of those videos includes the Patriots! Check 8081rt's Channel. 8)

Yeah I heard the same from him, good to hear he caught the Davis-Monthan show though! I saw a couple of clips from that show with comms already posted (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3). Also keep an eye on SpencerHughes2255's channel, he's in the same area as 8081rt and his videos are also top-notch.

P.S. Thanks for pointing out the Aerospace & Arizona Days Patriots Show! :D

In the second video for the Delta Loop @ 7:19 sounds like Basket almost left out everything after "Nose coming up..." and quickly corrected himself. I know how that feels! :roll:

It may just be the way he prefers his cadence (for now)... He sounds a little R O B O T I C in the way he does his ditty. "Back... In... With... The... Pull...", or "Into... The... Float..." almost sounds as if he's saying it with "purpose" in every word!

I'd put money on that he'll sound a little more blended and less distinct in pronouncing each syllable by next season if not sooner. Always seems to be the case with every Boss. He's already singing "Back in with the pull" differently in the rolls vs. loops. Just give it some time... :wink:

Well someone else posted videos from Aerospace & AZ Days. (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5) Note, big ripple effect in the TD Clover in Part 2 @ 6:05. :| Looked like a very windy day. Also, wonder why Split was back narrating instead of Mother. :?:
