    Thanks for your comments Dave and Steve. Steve I thought you fell off of the face of the earth. Glad to hear you are doing good. I'm still going thru my 3000+ pictures I took last week with my new 300mm f4 IS. at Sun N Fun. I'll post the good ones as I get time. Regards, Bill

    Hi Norm, I talked to Sean this week and he tells me that the red airplane was a highly modified Pitts S2. Most of the show planes are Experimental in that they are no longer stock. (design changes and Motor HP changes) But it is no more as he busted an elevator tork tube while practicing for Sun N Fun. He estimated that the red Oracle hit the ground at about 250 mph after he bailed out. (he is fine) The plane is a total loss. They are working on the backup plane and hope to get it ready for the next Show. Regards, Bill
