Flying at 80
May 3, 2015 09:01:32 #
for my father's 80th birthday, "the family" purchased my dad a flight with Kevin Keegan and his T6 American Warbird the "Screaming Eagle". These are just a few of the pictures that I took yesterday. So happy that 95% of them turned out really well. The pictures of the plane doing it's stunts were from about 5,000 to 6,000 feet way. Dad piloted all of the actual stunts except for one, which Kevin did. It will be years before dad comes back down to earth :-)

The Pilot actually had 3 go-pros in the cockpit. I am trading him a set of my photos for his videos.

I flew with Kevin a few years ago. He is without a doubt one of the smoothest pilots I've flown with.
Great gift for your father!
