At present the link in the above post isn't working

This link will take you to Franklin's Flying Circus & Air Show

http://www.franklinairshow.com

From there you can follow various links or go to the following link to see a vid on youtube about the air show.



Once at youtube there are various other video's there of some of the other acts including the flying drunk. :doh:

Cheers  :beer:

Well, it's good to see Kyle flying his Dad's old Waco.

Jimmy Franklin was killed a few years ago in a collision during a show with Bobby Younkin. Two great show pilots lost.
I never thought I'd see the Waco fly again, at least not in a show. Jimmy used to have a jet engine strapped to the bottom of that old biplane, it would climb straight up like a homesick angel.
