Too bad they didn't do it for a Sunday daytime game.

We will have more video up as it becomes available. The Chief's are supposed to supply us with their video as well as the video from the ESPN Camera ship. They played the overhead shot during the 3rd quarter of the game and it was awesome.

We also have Nflightcam shots from my headband mount and Jake set one up on the belly of #2 pointed down. We'll see how it turns out.

Fox 4 ran a story this morning with the video replay many times. Click on:

http://www.fox4kc.com/news/wdaf-kc-a...,7485777.story

They interviewed Ripper, I have not heard the audio yet.

We had a great time. It was a safe flight and all went as briefed. BeeGee was leading and talking to the ESPN camera ship all the way in. Said we looked "Different, like a B2 Bomber". After the pass he gave us a critique. Said it was "Very Safe and Professional". I've got it recorded and will get the video up later today.

Turned into a long night. Overtime game, did not get home till 1:00 AM. Thought about leaving early, but they put us up in a Suite and it just did not seem right to bail out early!

The best part was my 11 year old son Sean got to ride along and had his picture on the Jumbotron during the 3rd quarter. Said it was "His best Halloween Ever"!

Wow. Sometimes I forget how eh...uneducated non-aviation folks are. You were late because you are airplanes...not the A10s they thought you were. I guess they wanted you to fly through the fireworks as they were being lit

Great job

Kind of a sanity check on our responsibility to keep GA safe and alive.

We hit the time hack to the second. That Video was shot from the parking lot. Observers in the stands said The timing was perfect.

Nice!

Great job KC Flight! It is nice to see favorable coverage of GA. Too bad they couldn't get into the background story of being homebuilts, etc. Our segment could use the good PR in particular.

You guys did great. I should have used the sarcastic smiley. The people in the video said you were late, and A10 (not UFOs)
