A Grumman F7F Tigercat is a rare site to see. With only around six airworthy examples, you're not likely to see one too often. But Mike Brown believes in exercising his Tigercat. Not only does it make a few air shows each year, the F7F can be seen rounding the pylons each September in Reno, Nevada. Only three F7Fs have participated in air races and Mike's Tigercat, Big Bossman, is the most successful. There are many incredible sounds to be heard at Reno, but perhaps the most powerful is the twin R-2800s of Big Bossman.
