Hello from the USA

It has been a while since the last update but for a good reason. As you know, I am right now on a filming trip in the USA. Having just completed a very interest one-week filming stay at Oshkosh'23 - the largest airshow of the world - I really wanted to sit down and give you an update on what has happened so far. Now I had multiple filming stops before reaching Oshkosh (and am on the way to more) but for now, I want to focus on the big one.
First off all, I am blown away by Oshkosh - it truly is an aviation paradise. People are friendly, interested to talk about every and all aircraft, and it is fantastic seeing so many different birds on display. If you have been before, I am sure you will agree. If you haven’t been yet, I highly recommend that you go. It is exceptional.
For filming, I have so much that I have my work cut out for me - a good problem to have. Next to walkarounds and interviews with pilots, many of which were impromptu, there are the ‘regular’ Inside the Cockpit videos that were planned for this trip. On the ground coordination with the respective owners and operators was excellent and we got so much more than expected in the end. For Inside the Cockpit you can look forward to a smorrebrod of content on:
- P-51D ‘Twilight Tear’
- P-40K ‘Aleutian Tiger’
- P-47D ‘Bonnie’
- B-25/PBJ-1 ‘Devil Dog’
- B-25J ‘Miss Mitchell’
- SBD-5 Dauntless
- P-38J (walkaround only)
- Mosquito B.35 (walkaround only)
Big thank you to the owners/ operators of the aircraft, including Fagen Fighters, the Commemorative Air Force, Aircorps Aviation and EAA for the access and of course all of you for making this project a reality! And here is the kicker, I am not done yet - I will film even more in the US in the coming days!
