Texan Tuesday!

There are several aerobatic teams that use Texans for their performances. One such group is the Skytypers. Sponsored by GEICO, the Skytypers fly six SNJ-2 Texans. In addition to flying formation aerobatics, the Skytypers also do sky writing by flying line abreast and using a dot matrix method to make messages, sky typing.

This photo was taken at the 2011 Virginia Beach Patriotic Festival. Here the Skytypers’ solos perform an opposing pass.
