So I just got back, and edited the size (not sure about if they go over 100K yet lol) for Simviation.

What an incredible experience. There will be a number of threads with the images I took. I hope you all dont mind.

These were taken with a Fuji Finepix 2.1 megapixel camera. Wish I had a better one now, but some of these came out extremely well for such a basic camera. Also took some kinda fuzzy movies with it that can be viewed in Windows Media Player format. One of which shows an F-15 hitting the sound barrier (hence the cloud that surrounds it for a brief moment).

Nothing like trying to take pictures of some planes flying at over 450 knots through a view on a very bright sunny day! Methinks I got lucky

Without further adeiu

Hey, that's a sweet pic with the Rhino and the Texans in the background!

So, how was the Rhino demo?

Not sure Mark if you want it but I have an mpeg I took of them doing a roll, and you can hear that distinctive engine sound from it. Goosebumps!
