Saw that from another source....no damage to any aircraft, although I think one of the Cubs might be sporting some gravel rash on its left wingtip..
Pretending to do it TAC style with the big boys since 1987

That is some wind! A couple of Cubs that took off are almost hovering at some point.

Not the first incident to happen at the USAF Academy. Back in the late 60's a F-105 shattered a lot of windows injuring a number of people when it slipped through the Mach very low - opp's! Lots of red faces that day!
