I'm with Mike Henniger on this one. The Tomcat/Tigercat routine was spectacular! The pilots were Dale 'Snort' Snodgrass in the F-14, and John Ellis in the Kalamazoo Air Zoo's Tigercat. I was lucky enough to see this act at Batavia AND Kalamazoo that year, pure magic! Bob Hoover's Mustang act was certainly the most memorable act from my 'early days' attending airshows, while the event that has left the biggest impression on me of late was the truely awesome Mustang/Spitfire Mk.XVIII tail chase that all too few of us were able to witness at a small fly inn at Rudy Farsca's place this past September. What a mind-blowing show that was! Jim
