He really puts on a show. Saw him perform in Cozumel Mexico in 2012 (you stand beside the runway there) & booked a trip to see him again in April. Unfortunately the show got moved to Cancun & the date changed to the weekend we (the entire family) celebrate her 60th birthday.

A skill is developed through constant practice with a passion to improve, not bought.

He certainly does put on a great show. Only other pilot I've seen do similar is a local (Paul Bennet) So low you feel you could hold his tail and walk behind.

One of my favorite air show performers. As you said, he puts on a great show...and you got some great shots!
