Only obscure to these kids today with their Pokemons and Justin Beavers.

Some of us still remember Alanis Morissette like this:

^Bitchin' paint scheme! (And I used to think those guys up in Canadia were only good for odd sketch comedy, mediocre hockey teams, and green slime.)

They do a new paint job on their demo bird every year. "Paco" was doing a hell of a job all weekend. He took off from Toronto, flew his demo there then hooked up with a CC-130 tanker and refueled on the way to Cleveland. They made a simulated refueling pass then he flew his entire demo for Cleveland. Hooked back up with the tanker and flew back to Toronto. He only made a full stop in Cleveland on Monday. That made some history as it had never been done before. Two demos, two different countries - same day.

Air show parking
U.S. Air Force C-5 Galaxies cargo aircraft aligned on a Westover, Mass. Air Reserve Base runway, to make room for air show aircraft this past August. The 2012 Great New England Air Show was the largest Westover has had since 1974, boasting more than 60 aircraft. (U.S. Air Force photo by SrA Kelly Galloway)
 
I visited the Westover show with my daughter, I was impressed by that line of big-assed birds on the taxiway.
 
Had one of those too with a couple of Corsairs and a B25.The sound of all those radials turning over was pretty impressive!
