About 300 of these fly in _formations_ into Oshkosh, Wi, every EAA Convention, I proposed a few years to these guys, that WWII style 'combat box' formations would be more fun to watch and to fly, as it packs more planes into the air, than one hundred 3-plane vee's. Adding to the show, could be having some chuck out "flak" firecrackers, and some other people trail smoke "after taking flak hits". ..crowds loves such shows, however wise aviators needs to learn this can be done safely, and I believe a few hundred networked FG flying generic Bonanza's with detailed performance data "read off FAA N-number records", might help decide whether or not to do it in RL. ;-) ..but _after_ the Wright Flyer, please. ;-) -- ..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt... ;-) ...with a number of polar bear hunters in his ancestry...
