Great trip report Dave, quite a magic carpet ride. It was great to see the old F-86 with the Colorado Minute Men Aerial Demonstration Team paint scheme. They initially started out in 1947 with P-51s, flew a few other planes and got the F-86s in 1958. The Pentagon finally shut em down because their popularity was starting to rival the active duty Thunderbirds. http://aerobaticteams.net/minute-men.html

The F-16C with the Minute Men paint job that we did in 2006 can be seen here:

What a great trip Dave. I have a couple more bucket trips on the list that I'd like to make in the future. Glad you are enjoying the RV-10!!!
