US Army Sky Soldiers Demo Team
Hello All,
I hope you'll oblige me on this non-motorcycle post. But I couldn't help but share this info with you as I am extremely proud of my dad and the Sky Soldiers Demo team he has been a part of since it's inception in 1997.
The mission of the Sky Soldiers, (or Army Aviation Heritage Foundation) is to improve the public’s awareness of Army Aviation and it’s Veterans. Utilizing flyable historic Army Aviation aircraft, the AAHF tells the story of Army Aviation to the public through country-wide education presentations and airshows.
So if you're a fan of airshows, more than likely you will have already seen them or will see them in an upcoming airshow in your area soon. You can even take a ride on a real, Vietnam-era Huey helicopter. VERY cool. I've done it myself several times.
Further, the Cobra team has been rented this year to represent the US Army.
Anyway, below is a home video of the Cobra demo team at an airshow and another link to the Sky Soldiers' website, if you would like more info.

Thanks for allowing me this post. But I thought it might be of interest to other high-performace machine-loving folks like you.
Way to go dad! I'm very proud of you and your fellow vets and all the Sky Soldiers men and women who volunteer their valuable time making this successful.
Cheers!
