The Grumman F8F-2 Bearcat holds a special place in the history of the Blue Angels, being one of their original aircraft! Prior to transitioning to jet aircraft, the Blue Angels relied on this particular aircraft. We had the opportunity to interview John O'Connor for an in-depth exploration of this remarkable plane, uncovering the exceptional engineering elements that enable it to perform various altitudes during flight! | Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology

Historic Flight - Spokane putting their beautiful B-25D Mitchell "Grumpy" through its paces over Paine Field before they moved across the state to Spokane. The owner, John Sessions, sure changed a lot of lives over here and gave us photographers some amazing life-long memories. My first air-to-air session was from the back of this beauty, photographing his F8F Bearcat. | Fight to Fly Studio | Facebook
