The Blues, in a rehersal on friday July 24, had the #5 Lead Solo Aircraft come back and do a real arrested landing with some sort of a Hydraulic problem. I have a photo of  the aircraft landing with some fluid spraying out of the Nose Landing Gear area. The photo taken by my cousin who was there and snap a pic on Friday, of some fluid( presumably Hydraulic Fluid) spraying out of the NLG area. I'll scan it and try to put it up when I get back. the maintainers worked the aircraft up till 12 noon on saturday but this particular aircraft sat parked on saturday. The Maintenance crews moved the real #4 to the #5 lead solo spot and moved the #7 aircraft into the #4 spot and then changed the numbers on the tails so that it appeared that all #1 thru#6 aircraft were flyingon Saturday

Cool, I'd love to see that shot.  8) Nate was having pretty good luck at Winter Training... I think it was Walleye's jet that kept breaking out there.  <laughing>
