Description: At the end of the airshow, they towed this CH-53E out to the runway and it took off. Quite an impressive sight! I only wish I had video of the fast low pass he did right after this. I thought they were departing and wasn't expecting him to come around for one last 'hot pass.' I wish I had gotten it on video. It was about 50 feet off the ground gound probably 80+ mph. Very cool!!
