Is it cheesy? Yeah. Is it corny? Yeah. But it's the closest (to my knowledge) of air racing being in any video.

I know a lot of the people on this board are new, but the Condor Squadron used to make up a significant portion of the T-6 class.

The days of Charlie Beck, Dick Sykes, Jim Modes, etc. are gone, but they are certainly not forgotten.

Yeah it is.

But it reminds me what I like about T-6's.

Girls can fly them.

Ahhh, the Blue Angels with the Scooter... When I first saw the Blues it was the late 70's/early 80's at Willow Grove NAS with the A-4. They really could stack 'em together!!!

Too bad it was Van "Hagar" and not Van Halen.

If Pat would have kept her lips tightly over those huge teeth, that T6 would probably have picked up a few knots!

Also, that video was Bill Paxton's "big screen" debut..

Can't say I remember that one. Gonna reveal some of my dark 80s music secrets here.... but did't Night Ranger do a video with a B-25? I know it figured prominently on an album cover (Seven Wishes, to be exact).

Funny coincidence- when I was driving home last night a local radio talk show host was going back and forth with his callers about Van Hagar vs. Van Halen- apparently there was some press release that Van Halen is going back on tour with Roth on vocals. His contention was that the *only* Van Halen album that was worth owning was the first one and a couple of songs on the second. I'm afraid I gotta almost agree on that one. I lost interest when EVH started fooling around with keyboards instead of abusing Stratocasters. When I want keyboards, I'll listen to Rick Wakeman or Keith Emerson.

I'm with you on that one although the videos for the "1984" album are certainly - ahem - memorable (e.g. "Hot for Teacher").

Dasher, I'm not as young as I look...I get to cringe for both VH1's "I Love the 70's" and the "I Love the 80's."
