Flew again today chasing the formation guys at Prado... 2 P-51's and a T-6... Their all over RCU in videos from different events... very popular.. they let me fly with them and I was able to keep up with them easily... 4 Warbird gaggle in a 50foot box fast pass on the deadline is very cool... It was high 80's today but didn't have any overheating at all... temp on cylinder after landing was 200... that's 15 laps at full throttle...

hey, question for you engine pros out there... should I be worried going to higher altitudes for Warbirds over the Rockies? will that make my current needle settings at sea level too rich?
