Nice pics Bruno! Lora's gonna love the Zero and pink Spitfire. Try re-loading that second batch...Can't access them for some RCU reason. Here's the first edited video of the Nakajima B5N "Kate". 65lbs of pure sweetness! By the way, the video you shot for this is excellent, thanks!!

Here's the third in the series of edits from the event. This one includes the "fast-movers". Excellent flying display by some great pilots!

Brian,
No, it's not the same plane but it does carry several of the original components! This particular version started as the TF GS ARF which was modified to the B version and flew for years. Had a rudder servo fail at full throw and the resulting hard landing broke the fuse in half. As a result, the carcass sat in the "corner of shame" for some time until I was motivated by Bruno's build last year (see TF ARC Mods thread). I'm just not happy without my Princess! Great to hear from you! Saw the pic Lora took at the AMA Expo...you look great...how'd you do it?

YEAH..............And that goes for the boys from the HOOD down in pue town........Better known as the Birds of Prey. Doug, Lora and all of the great staff that put on the Ritz (Warbrids Over Denver) Well done as always. It's always a fun time. The weather held until the latter part of the last day......... We missed Zach this year and Brent had to leave a day early. We'll have some new BIG IRON next year..........See ya in Pueblo in a couple of months. Your normal pit area will be prepped, swept and ready.........Duane should have the new Hawker Tempest out and Brent should have the Robart Thunderbolt out.
LATER, CAPTAIN RON
LATER, CAPTAIN RON

I don't want to go without mentioning how critical the support of the Jefco Aeromod'lers and RC Hobbies are to this event. They step up every year and without them, Warbirds Over Denver could never happen. Thanks fellas!!!
Cap'n, definitely looking forward to seeing those new birds at WOP this Labor Day...for me, I love it...just fly 'till you drop!
Thanks Clark! I think my favorite "Kate" flight was the one with your Jug peppering my tail...that footage is just too cool! My rear gunner couldn't lock you in when you dove under me. Next time you may not be so lucky!
Here's the last of the vids with part of the opening ceremony.
