Tactical to Practical
In case you missed it this week, we've got the segment on the Civil Air Patrol from Tactical to Practical with Hunter Ellis on the The History Channel.
It's really a good segment. (and I've got high standards)
I love the part where he slaps on a CAP MajCom patch before he straps on a CAP airframe.
My favorite quote, "It's not the kind of flying people would do of their own choice, unless they were reckless."
Pretty cool.
Watch it now (7.5 Meg Quicktime Movie): CAP on T2P






Thanks for posting the video. It is nice press for all the hard working volunteers of CAP. I just wish we were being used to our full potential in all states. Sometimes we are too much of a well-kept secret.

good clip... any chance of CAP aquiring this and/or the Defending America segment on CAP on vhs or dvd for squadron use?

Thank you so much for posting this. I am the DCC for the squadron which hosted Hunter Ellis and the T2P filming. He is a great guy and the crew was professional. We even gained a senior member to our squadron from the filming crew. He was a sound engineer and found out what we were all about during filming and decided to join. I will check this site often as I just discovered it this morning.
