Chuting Eagles Perform at Brunswick Naval Air Station

Once again, the weather did not cooperate for the air show. Due to high winds, rain and ground fog the Chuting Eagles were unable to perform the full version of their carefully planned show. However, when the ceiling was too low for the other performers, the Chuting Eagles were able to wow the crowd with their impromptu rain version of their routine.
After their performance on Saturday, they were brought out to the audience in a convertible so the crowd could gawk at the handsome and talented pilots.



Wing Walker Ashley Battles

Ashley Battles was by far the most favored act by The Chuting Eagles. She is very talented and her act is amazing, but we're pretty sure it's those legs that make the act so attractive...


Blue Angels try to out-maneuver The Chuting Eagles

The Blue Angels put on a very impressive show, but we're not certain that their act is any more difficult... Faster, yes, but rumor has it that The Chuting Eagles have flown in a similar formation. Unfortunately, we don't have any proof!

Chuting Eagles to Perform at The Great State of Maine Air Show

The Chuting Eagles Flight Demonstration Team is in the final stages of preparing for their routine at the Brunswick Naval Air Station as a part of the Great State of Maine Airshow. Weather permitting, the trio will perform Friday, September 5th around 6pm.

Last year's weather proved to be challenging for the team as continuous rain dampened the entire event, so we're hoping for clear skies this time!

John managed to take off from his new runway - and his end cells were fully inflated before he lifted off the ground!

Yes, it happens on this blog too - sometimes we just run out of stuff to talk about!
