Here's some teasers from Airfest 08, if anyone has any tips on the best NeatImage settings, please tell me, as I think some of my pics could possibly end up on a.net, but if neatimage isn't nicer to me then

Not really a fail, that hangar can easily fit the C-5 into it, just not the tail, which shouldn't fit into any hangar.

That specific one I think was getting loaded for a mission, as it rolled out later in the show and took off.

True for most hangers. But here at Eglin AFB is the climatic laboratory - aka the big ol hanger! They do all sorts of extreme cold and hot weather testing in that lab. Quite a site to see up close!

Well done, a few side notes though...

1.  If you leave an airshow with the same amount of hearing as when you got there, you're wrong.  Earplugs are for Sailors!!!  (Sorry Flyboy)

2.  Let's see some of these future Anet shots!!!!  

3.  That Raptor pic is beautiful!!!

4.  That F-15 is gorgeous!!!!

5.  Very cool that you got to talk to the Raptor pilot!!!  Bonus points for that.
