I put this together and have it running on a couple of places to drive traffic. Enjoy (This footage is just 1 week old!):

Andy, very cool and inspirational video !
Between you and Odesigns, I have to get my butt in gear and do some video reels.
Just won't happen until I'm fully moved and setup in the new house. :-(

Hey Jake,

No worries... all good things take their time. I just had to do this one for my oldest son (my inspiration to having done this quickly) as he is in the USAF. :) Thanks for the kind words. I do look forward to your goodies. Just make sure you put the "I want some food" clip in it! :)

Well done ... I especially like the F-4 Phantom II footage. Since I have over 2,000 hours flying the the Phantom it is my favorite fighter jet. Hense my handle PhantomEWO. Thanks for the memories.

You bet Don. I was actually thinking about you when I was creating (and shooting) this footage. I just wasn't exactly sure what you exactly did.. now I know. Cheers.

Was that a WW2 spitfire? lol ,,, cool video, I won't ask how you got so close ;)
I probably have 2000 hours......on combat flight simulator.... (ww2 game)
not quite the same thing I guess.

Jake I think you should make a company logo first, I guess you don't know how to do complex CG, but still maybe you could do something simple. You could deliver a foreclosure notice and the paper can have your logo on it, or something like that :P :)

And there are only a few F-4 Phantoms flying in the USA now, private owned for airshow only. Most of the rest are in the bone yard in Arizona and a lot of them are now converted to remote control flight and are shot down in the Gulf of Mexico for training. There are probably hundreds of old fighter aircraft in the Gulf being shot down by other aircraft for fun and training. I've put a couple in there myself ;). I guess they make good artificial reefs too.

Yes, I do need a fancy eye catching logo like Andy's and yours.
I don't know how to do CG but I'll come up with something.

Yes, Don - This was a Heritage Flight special event. Out in the "bone yard" here, they built up the F-4's then paint their tails red, install remote controls and then fly them down to Florida for target practice. At least that's what I was told. :)

Mark, actually, I had full permission amazingly enough.The really cool thing was that my neighbor who happens to be a major contractor on base remembered me and invited me. We then sat on top of one of his company's containers right next to the runway. Moral of the story - let everyone you meet know that you shoot for stock - and sometimes, they remember and open doors for you. Very cool.
