Rocket Fly by American Flag

[@drummondgrinalds1524]

Very nice for Veterans Day coming up. Thanks.

[@WheelsInTheSky]

@Drummond Grinalds. Thanks. Great to hear from you.

[@autopilotthroughlife]

You and your friends flew over my gatehouse in Tollgate canyon the other day and I gotta say, I enjoyed the free airshow. Thanks for inspiring some of us to get out and get our PPL. Your retirement is a thing of beauty and that plane is the chef's kiss.

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Lol, you’re welcome. There were 5 of us coming back from Spanish Fork a while back, flying a low level home. We came thru your area.

Great video once again!! Thanks for sharing! Glad to see you post a new video. I've missed getting my F1 Rocket fix!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Hey James, good to hear from you. I know what you mean, more than a few days and I have to jump in my Rocket and go circle the mountain.

[@jamesriordan7]

@@WheelsInTheSky I would too if I had a Rocket! I'm working on selling my Waco currently, hoping to get into an RV-8 afterwards. I'd love an F1 but they have gone insane with prices and insurance premiums!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

I’ve always thought the RV8 was a great all round plane. More room for luggage than the Rocket and about the same speed. I think the only thing the Rocket does is climb a little faster. Prices are crazy on everything right now it seems. I keep thinking there’s got to be a pull back soon. Hope you get a good price for your Waco. I’ll let you know if I see any good deals on a Rocket.

[@jamesriordan7]

@@WheelsInTheSky yes, the prices on everything is insane, especially airplanes! I’d like to say that Wacos went up in value too , but they didn’t. I do appreciate the kind words though. Hopefully I can get enough to be able to pick up an -8. I doubt I can find a Rocket for that money, but maybe the prices will come down if I hold off for a bit. Thanks so much for keeping an eye out for me!

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Thanks Jason. See you at the airport.

[@Motorcyclemike58]

Absolutely love this video!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

@Mike Bulmanski. Hey Bull, thanks. I bought my third plane last January, a Husky. Now I’m busy all the time. Lol

[@davidcoppock3017]

glad to see you posting again!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

@David Coppock. Thanks David.

[@jaredjensen3776]

Very Nice!! Loved it

[@WheelsInTheSky]

@Jared Jensen. Thanks. Glad you liked it.

[@SPACE_CHUCK_NORRIS]

Awesome sir! Amazing video!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Thanks axis810, I appreciate it. Glad you liked it.

[@watchfordpilot]

Nice tribute, awesome scenery and great camera work as always. Any chance of cutting in some of your r/t. Cheers👍

[@WheelsInTheSky]

@watchfordpilot. Good to hear from you. I’ve had the worst time collecting audio. First the cockpit camera that collects audio would overheat in the summer then the audio adapter quit. Just got two new audio adapters today and ordered a new camera. Just wanted you to know I’m working on it. I’ll be posting a few more videos that I’ve already taken that don’t have audio. But after that hopefully I’ll do better. Thanks for checking in.

[@stephanstrydom8608]

Awesome video sir. Missing them.

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Thanks Stephan. I’ll try to keep them coming.

[@thomasaltruda1243]

Tell Mike that Tom with the -4 in Vegas said HI

[@WheelsInTheSky]

I’ll let him know.

[@jessesplan7759]

Amazing video footage and impressive aviating. I'm finishing up my 180A and see you flying frequently at BTF. You have some greasy landings!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Hi Jesse. Thanks, sometimes they’re good and sometimes not. I just hope no one is looking when they’re not. I’ll have to catch up with you and see your 180A.

[@jessesplan7759]

@@WheelsInTheSky That would be great! You're welcome to check her out anytime...Corey and Jim H. are working on it at Air Space, hangar B. I'd love to see your 185 and your Rocket in person!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Thanks I’ll check in with you. I’m in E, across from Ron, the Skymaster man. He always has a couple Skymasters parked in front of his hanger

[@shanejohnson4745]

Nice video Wheels, I hope my planes flying soon.

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Yeah me to. Not the same without you!!

[@highmarkrich]

Were you along with the flight that did the flyby on Veteran's Day?

[@WheelsInTheSky]

@Preston Rich. Hi, yes. 5 of us flew by. We were kinda high, but we hadn’t done 5 planes in the canyon before, Just 2 & 3 ship. I flew #3 position and did the pull up since I had smoke. Then flew single ship passes, which is always fun. I’ve got a real short video of it . I’ll post it Thursday. Hope it looked ok from the ground.

[@robertcary435]

Nicely done!

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Thanks. Hope to fit a 5 ship down the canyon over the flag on Veterans Day!!

[@F4flyer]

Nice rejoin and crossunders.

[@WheelsInTheSky]

@Jim Riley. Hey Jim. As you probably know, those are just some of the fun aspects of formation flying. I’m no Thunderbird, but I sure like flying with friends!

[@macjohnson4326]

Did you see that a few hikers caught video of you as you passed? I saw it on facebook.

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Yeah, Jason told me about it last night. Nice video. I really liked it, especially Listening to the young kid that got so excited!

[@reckemroysrc3764]

Awesome flying wings. That flag is awesome there's a giant flag up here in northern Washington at camping world rv. It's not as big as your flag but it's pretty close. Not nearly as cool because it's on a huge flag pole. Thanks for the ride

[@WheelsInTheSky]

You’re always welcome for the ride. You should take one of your RC’s and buzz that flag.

[@AirplaneDetective]

What are you running for smoke oil, it has pretty good hang time.

[@WheelsInTheSky]

@AirplaneDetective. Hi, yeah if the winds are calm, it hangs around for awhile. I use Blue Sky White Lightning Smoke Oil. I get it from AviationOilOutlet.Com

[@v35james78]

Stellar.

[@WheelsInTheSky]

Thanks James
