Watching the ships roll in...........

Postby Mike.. » Tue Aug 28, 2007 8:34 pm

It was the end of a great air show here in Honolulu when I caught this tiger by the tail with my camera  eventually bringing her to rest on 21R. She was a real show stopper. (my pathetic attempt to make up some sort of story like they would on airliners.net to go with the shot.......work with me fellas! ;D).

I hope you all enjoyed viewing, and I do wish a sincere good luck to all of you participating this month. There sure are a great lot of entries so far. Again, thanks for looking in. C&C welcome as always.

I'm quite liking this shot, especially the skyline... very pleasing on the eye and not to cluttered. Lovely paint.
Great work and good luck in the comp!

It's in the earlier simviation military download pages. It's a complete AC but you will want to get a better panel and sounds for it ;). Thanks for all the kind replys.

Beautiful shot, love that livery!  And the story works out too since Honolulu actually shares the airport runways with Hickam AFB ( I think Honolulu is leasing from Hickam, or vice versa).  

I believe the Thunderbirds are doing a show there this month (September)!!!  Too bad I'm going to miss it as I am deploying for a month this Thursday, but I'll be back for the blue angels in Oct!!

Again, staying on subject, great shot :D
