    Frickin awesome. I'm from England originally and we have our own version called The Red Arrows which I used to love seeing at airshows when I was a kid.

    Kurt,

    I am so amazed at just how close they can actually fly near one another and still maintain focus and not crash. These pictures are truly inspirational.

    Love and Hugs ~ Kat
