Sunday May 7, 2023

Captain Aimee "Rebel" Fiedler of the F-16 Viper Demo Team takes the stage to fly a fantastic low show performance over the slowly clearing skies of Corpus Christi. While the visibility was still poor and the cloud deck was just above minimums, Rebel still managed to fly a great demonstration.

I apologize for the extreme amount of shake in the video; this was the result of steady winds of at least 15 mph each day with even higher gusts. This, along with low and hazy clouds and exceptionally poor visibility persisted throughout the entire weekend and especially on Friday and Saturday. These were not conducive to good airshow filming conditions.

The 2023 Wings Over South Texas Air Show is presented by Reliant and is just one part of the Buc Days festivities in Corpus Christi.

All airshow video shot by ZINGER AVIATION MEDIA during the 2023 airshow season and especially at locations during the 2023 airshow season which would have featured airshow announcer Howdy McCann at the microphone are dedicated to his memory. Howdy passed away suddenly on March 9, 2023, and his voice and contributions to the airshow industry should never be forgotten.

Please note that any music in the video was played through a public address system and ZINGER AVIATION MEDIA does not have any control over what music is being played during an air show. The music industry has increased its concern to ensure they are paid when
copyrighted music is played. Therefore, the USAF requires any U.S. air show, civilian or military, hosting an Air Force aircraft performance which includes music secure the necessary music licenses for broadcast of pre-recorded copyrighted music over public address systems. For the 2023 airshow season, the International Council of Air Shows (ICAS) has negotiated a deal that will allow issuance of music licenses for ICAS member air shows for all three US music licensing organizations: ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC. Each ICAS member air show is eligible for a single package of the three music licenses for one air show at the cost of $875. The rate applies only to music broadcast over the public address system during the air show portion of the program and does not provide the show with the right to use prerecorded music at concerts or other non-air show special events held in conjunction with the air show.
