I have this plan (or maybe I scould say dream...) about forming "NORVAT" (Norwegian RV Aerobatic Team)

For the last year or so, me and a couple of friends have been flying formation, both close and tactical formations, just like we did in the "old days" when we all flew fighters in the Norwegian Airforce.

We are one RV-4, a Saab Safari and me, but we hope to persuade the Safari-guy to buy a flying RV-8 soon, because the Safari has too little power compared to the RV's. Because of that, he flies lead all the time, but still the Safari is too low powered.

We have also another RV-4 and RV-6 close by, and hopefully a RV-8 within a year or so.
So the possibilities are there, it's just a mather of getting together and do it.

So it's REALLY nice to send the guys links to such nice video's like this one! That gives their motivation a big boost!
Two weeks ago I flew an RV-6 to Lakeland, FL where it was to be packed for shipment to Norway. Let me know if you need contact information for the new owner. Perhaps he would like to join in on the fun.
