2010 Oskosh Air Show

Thanks, swimmer. As an airplane nut it has always been a dream of mine to attend Oshkosh. This video is outstanding. The soundtrack by Coldplay doesn't hurt either
 
Just watched this video again for the umpteenth time and I have to say the only thing I wish is that it was longer in length. The fly-bys by the F4 and A4 group, the Mig 21, F-15, V22, C-17, and the P-51's all raised the hairs on the back of my neck. I have never seen a helicopter perform a barrel roll and had no idea so many DC-2's remained in flying condition. The rocket powered glider almost made me jump out of my seat and the DC-3 in Piedmont Air Line livery brought a lump to my throat. The EAA does a magnificent job with this airshow and along with the annual Paris airshow has to be ranked as the best in the world.

Too bad I can't pick up one of those at my local sporting goods store. If anyone, after seeing Blackhawk Down, doubted the ability of the Hughes 500 with a SAW to sweep the rooftops in Mogadishu they only need look at this video. Awesome.
