Colonel Culpepper's Flying Circus Reporter Ian Wooldridge
Less than one hour's plane ride from J.R.'s home town Dallas is the most unusual airforce in the world. Nearly 100 bombers and fighters from the Second World War wait in readiness for the scramble that will never come; they form the Ghost Squadron of the Confederate Air Force. Under their commander, Colonel Jethro E. Culpeper , the 7,000 colonels - there are no other ranks -keep their aerial armada in the skies over Texas, ' to perpetuate the spirit that kept the free world free.' Every October the airforce puts on its annual show of strength at command HQ. The colonels remind the world once again of a time when ' America was great'.

' I was criticised for saying I had a few pints before I climbed up, but I'd like to say, you just want to try this bloody job sober. If I've had a couple of pints I don't think I'm King Kong. I tackle it that little bit easier, more cautious.' Narrator Deryck Guyler
