In 1973 I stood behind Tangerine while she warmed up at the airshow in Windsor On. I thought it would be a unique opportunity to feel what real prop wash was like, and probably an experience not to be repeated. The next year I was in the army and well, that was just different.

Darren, nothing beats a good airshow.
Back in the late 80's I had a ride in Miss America, the P51D Reno air racer. Pilot was Joanne Osterud, what a great lady and pilot. My son also had a ride, think he was the youngest to fly in that plane, Joanne gave us a great ride. Went down the runway in Kelowna showing 423 mph. When asked by the tower her speed she said around 300, just in case there was a limit. LOL
Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?
