Air Show Photos

We went to an air show last Sunday with my father, who was in from out of town. The heat index was over 100 degrees. :thud: It was a ton of fun, but we were all completely wiped out at the end of the day. I took several hundred photos thanks to the continuous shooting feature, but thought I'd share some of my favorites.

Enjoy!

Beware of Marines






My father in the turret of an MRAP



F-15E (I believe) and a P-51






Army Golden Knights Parachute Team



Uncle Sam



V-22 Osprey. I don't know why, but this aircraft intrigues me and is probably my favorite.









CH-53 Helicopter



KC-130, EA-6B Prowler, and two AV-8B Harriers






And the rest of these are the Blue Angels:






















If you've never been to an air show, make some time to go next time there is one near you. :>>

Very nice pictures - I was wondering if I could upload a couple of them to my gallery aircraft section http://www.navycs.com/gallery2/v/navy/aircraft/ I would of course place a link to your site from them :)

Mr. Goering, thank you for the compliments. You're welcome to use the photos, though I don't know that they'll necessarily compare to some of those in your gallery. :)
