Blue Thunder II Update - John Parker ... We brought Blue back from the Golden West show on Sunday morning so that we could get her in a few shots of a 3D IMAX feature that was being filmed here at the Stead Airport. The next morning, June 13, I started formation and pylon race course practice, flying once a day for a week. Steve Edmonson was here for the week and he did a great job of finding places on Blue to mount our GoPro Hero camera. We got a lot of footage and Rhonda has edited some of that footage and uploaded it onto You Tube. The links below show some pretty cool stuff.

Daleville’s Heroic Huey — the 325 from Travel for Aircraft | Daleville AL has a Bell UH-1H Huey proudly displayed at the Daleville Cultural and Convention Center — but not an ordinary display. One may expect that this aircraft is dedicated to a group in the armed services, Army would be a good supposition, or perhaps to nearby Fort Rucker where the U.S. Army first trains its aviators, or even to local veterans.
