Default RV Formation Flight at Corsicana Airshow

Here's some footage of some cool RV formation flight at the Corsicana Airshow this past Saturday in Corsicana, Texas. Please forgive mister shaky-hands with the video camera.

Looks like "Jarhead" leading "Falcon Flight". "Jarhead" has been part of a 6-RV formation team doing air shows for the entire 15+ years that I have known him.

Default Formation Flying

Thanks so much for posting this! We never seem to get good video from the ground posted by someone that knows the discipline it takes to fly formation in front of spectators. Did you per chance get any video of the bomb burst? Always like to see what it really looks like. Again, Thank you! We will be in Conroe the first weekend of June.

Thanks Bobby! Sorry. No bomb bursts. They always seem to happen after I hit the "stop" button the camcorder. Do you have a website, or the date and times? I would love to come out and get another "shot" at it.
