Actually, yesterday was a really great day for the Thunderbirds, and me!

They were performing at the Binghamton, NY (BGM) air show and since I 
live only a short distance from the airport, and on top of a "mountain" 
at nearly the same MSL as BGM, I have a direct line of sight to the 
airport. So I sat on my front deck with a couple cold beers and my 
scanner, watching and listening to the whole show in comfort. At times 
they flew right over my house! Outstanding performance!!!!

73, Ray
