| Valiant Air Command (VAC) is the name of the air museum at Titusville. Their annual air show is a great event for warbird lovers. Most of the collection had been towed across the airfield for static display, where two rarely noted US Department of State helicopters with an interesting career were also found. A large number of warbirds from the Southern states were present and could be photographed while performing with the sun in the back. The flight line was open to the public in the morning hours so the aircraft could be seen from up close. Unfortunately, the weather was not very cooperative, gusts of winds caused some acts had to cancel their performance, including the F-104. However, the organization realized the public did not only come to see it fly, but above all to hear its howl, and had it make a few fast taxi runs! The USAF Thunderbirds performed out of nearby Patrick AFB. What likely has become the last performance by the team of fiscal year 2013 ended with a fast approaching storm front and tornado warning, cutting short the air show programme in style. | |||
