Can someone explain to me why Boss is the one flying the family model?
I always heard it would be 4 with the "D" model if they have to use it...
Did they have a problem during the show?
And another question, if Boss has a problem can he land, change planes, and continue the show, or everyone has to land?

Couldn't really tell you what was wrong with #1. He shut down and hopped in the spare they had parked on the taxiway somewhere down by the end of show left. They started up #1's jet Friday night during the night show and did some testing to see if it was ready but I guess it wasn't.
Sry for the crap quality, I'm still getting used to my camera. I don't like low light shots.

They don't always have 4 as the "D". I've seen the wagon as 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. It isn't written in stone that it must be in 4.
