great thing  bad camera

Postby BAW0343 » Sat Mar 04, 2006 3:39 pm

anyway i just got a new camera in an emergency today  ;D  at Davis Monthen they have something like a memorial thing where the have modern planes and past planes flying in formation.  its not open to the public so i dont have much info,  however they fly right over my house.  yesterday an A-10, P-51, and F-86 flew in formation, today, and p-51 (in D-day paint sorry you cant see it in the photos) and an F-22 flew over   this was the first time i have seen an f-22   and boy are they cool, great sound too. well enough talk  here are the low quality pics  (you would think a 4 megapix would do better on zoom but it doeset    its 5X zoom.

this first one was a few blackhawks that seem to be going SE  somewhere

Also i have seen an F-15 with 2 p-51s and an F-16, F-4, and a p-51 today but no good pics.  I will try to get more as they get more planes out

Does Davis-Monthan have an airshow this weekend? They may be practicing.

Nice shots too.

Yes, they do. It is a Heritage Flight Conference, and it is not open to the public, unfortunately.

HERE is a link with more info.

Who cares about the quality? That's a rare sight.
