Went there and spent some time in the Breitling tent. Tried on the SOHC, very cool. A free hat was given if you happened to be wearing your Breitling. Since me and my wife wear ours all of the time, we got us some hats! :D :lol:

The jet was outside the tent, it was a demo and not one of the real ones.

Some other pics from the day.

Me too! :mrgreen: Very jealous! I believe one was at the Farnborough Airshow here in the UK this summer, but only on the trade days, NOT the public weekend when I went. :cry: Gutted.

Wow! I'm very jealous. The best airshow I can get around here is the flyover at the Daytona 500.

The Raptor was awesome to say the least. The demonstration was very impressive and according to the MC its full capabilities were not shown.

The Reno air races are a great air show. They also had a LE reno air race SOHC for sale there.

Thanks, I'm a little surprised you don't have a Breitling team jet! That would be the ultimate full Ling! :lol:
