The phrase "The Horsemen" often evokes images of mystery and power. Today, the Horsemen ride again, this time as the world's only P-51 formation aerobatic team.

Now AirshowBuzz has harnessed the thundering power of the Horsemen's THREE P-51 Mustangs to represent the heartbeat of a new beginning.

For the past year AirshowBuzz has been quietly creating a pioneering network that will transform your computer into the next generation of television.

Soon AirshowBuzz.com will be called ASB.TV and just like the

The Horsemen have always admired the Blue Angels flight demonstration team. So when Jim, Dan, and Ed found out they were flying a show with the Blues they decided to pay homage to the Angels by replacing their normal ride of P-51 Mustangs with F-8F Bearcats. When the Blues caught wind of what was happening they suggested their solo pilots fly formation with the Bearcats. Then everyone thought it would be cool if Al Taddeo, who flew Bcats on the first Blues team, came and watched the Bearcats fly. ASB.TV was

Shipley started flying when he was 14 and directing at 21. His passion for both flight and film is woven thoughout the fabric of ASB. Most of all, Ed loves formation aerobatics.

The story of Dan's accomplishment is amazing. It's a total life lesson of what can be achieved if you are completely willing to throw your mind, body, and soul at something you love.

This episode of the "Horsemen Cometh" tries to answer that question with an intimate look behind the scenes of team lead Jim Beasley. Jimmy is a lawyer, doctor, and a complete piece of work. This episode might be a bit bumpy... so sit down, strap in, and hang on.

The Horsemen may fly Mustangs in formation but we know that if you REALLY want to learn how to fly formation you need to do it in the T-6 Texan. That plane has humbled all of us... which is why they call it the "pilot maker." That is exactly why we thought our Air Force Demo Pilot friend and host of the "Horsemen Cometh" show Paul "Max" Moga should get some time flying it. Watch this segment for yourself to see how "Max" did in the front seat of the "Terrible Texan" with his instructor Dr. Beasley in the ba
