I can imagine that it was very exciting to see them fly over Cinderella Castle this morning.

What a cool experience that must have been for everybody in the park!

Originally Posted By Kusin_It sickening display of both wealth and waste, and if not that bravado and nationalism instead of cold world tanks, missiles and infantry parading through Moscow or Kim Jung moon's Korea we get fight planes to inspire total nonsense. hope they crash into the castle to teach lesson on public waste and bravado.

Originally Posted By dagobert I think it looked cool. Our military is very small with only a few Eurofighter Typhoons and so we don't have such performing teams.

I know these things are not necessary, but they look cool. I like to see such shows.
