Can it really get any more gnarly than this? What a fantastic machine. I don’t mean to read like “old man yelling at cloud”, but they really don’t make anything like this anymore. Wowza. And there’s more…

How about some more Buggies ‘n’ Blues photos? (Part 2)

Recently, some town east of here called Fargo held a little thing they call the Airsho. I went down the day before as part of a meet & greet with the Blue Angels, the A-10 Thunderbolt demo pilots, and the F-22 Raptor demo team. It was a fantastic day!

This is one of my favorite “floats” in the 2024 Independence Day parade! It’s got a pretty meaty sounding engine, too!
