Kyle Franklin
Waco Mystery Ship
2009 AirPower Over Hampton Roads
Langley AFB, Virginia
Saturday April 25, 2009
IN THIS VIDEO, watch as Kyle Franklin takes off (as well as Sean Carroll in his Yak 9) and then flies his aerobatic performance over the skies of Langley AFB.
Like what you've seen? If you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take the time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .

Kyle was the only other pilot who has flown the Jet Waco. The wreckage of it is in storage, and Kyle flew with their other Waco for his shows. A new, smaller and stronger version of the Jet Waco was already being designed and constructed before Jimmy's death. The events of this year's accident probably make the new Waco low on the priority list.
