You sir, are an inspiration. I am just like you. Ever since I was 5, I have wanted to fly an F-16. Thank you for helping me push myself for following my dream!! :)
Geneseo's always been my absolute favorite place to go see an airshow. It may not be able to get jets on the ground, or draw big acts like the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels (it did, back in the heyday of Wings of Eagles, in the early 90s). But there's something magical about it. I think it's the grass strip and the beautiful valley the airfield is nestled in, which so resembles wartime England... Geneseo has the ambience and intimacy that the big shows don't. And for this, it's special.
wow i just realized it was you guys that I saw at the air and water show in chicago! OMG, the most memorable moment there was when you F-16 entered the show, the part when it flew really low, and really fast and surprised the HELL out of me. I was in line for a snow cone, and the viper flew DIRECTLY overhead, it was so low! Wow, that was just so inspiring, I thought flying that low to the croud was illegal, guess not. I WILL become an Air Force pilot, no matter what it takes!
also i should add that this is my dream right here, to become an F-16 pilot. For the past few years I have been obsessed with military aircraft, and just flying in general. I dont know what it is about flying, but I have truly found my passion. I will be going through AFROTC in college, and really want a pilot slot. Hopefully some medical concerns I have wont hold me back.

I'm surprised I only just found this. I have several photos from Major Graham's 2010 Geneseo performance if the team is interested.
