Strega Info???

Re: Strega Info???

Might want to re-think the last part of that

"Pulling the screens and changing the plugs" might be an essential part of going fast, but the PILOT pulling the screens and changing the plugs isn't necessarily.

I can't remember the last time I saw Skip Holm changing the plugs on Dago. Or The Healer. Or Stiletto. Or Jeannie. In fact, for the most part, that would have drawn something to the effect of a verbal bitch-slap from Big Z or the Doc.

"Get your f*#king hands off of my f*#king engine! Bad pilot. No biscuit."

He still did pretty good for himself.

Not taking anything away from any pilot anywhere, I think it's safe to say that Stevo Hinton is a special breed of cat!

Re: Strega Info???

So...no Smoot in a T-28, Voodoo rumors looking doubtful, and no Strega. Anybody want to explain what all the excitement was about?

Interesting, I went to the "News" page at Live Airshow TV and there was only one word on the whole page. It said, "Woops."......
