The WoW shows are amazing & with the work being done by Vintage Aviator at Hood Areodrome & Omaka they will keep improving. Great video but can you turn off the fake hair in the gate effect? It looks like a pube. :-)

I know that Vintage Aviators is building new Se-5a airframes, but where'd they get a stash of Viper engines???
