This was the first time I saw the Heavy Metal Jet Team. Great demo, great color scheme of black, white & grey camo. They displayed many formations and manuevers that both the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds doi in their respective demos.

But Dale "Snort" Snodgrass took this to a whole other level in the Mig-17. He tore the place up! What a demo, what a pilot!

Here are a few of the Heavy Metal Jet Team

Great shots great performance. Scott in the Mig-17 was amazing. And from where I was during their performance they definitely won over the crowd!
