Teaser for Hill AFB Airshow

Postby cloud9 » Sun Jun 11, 2006 7:15 pm

Here are some teaser shots from Hill AFB's Airshow this weekend.  Will have more later. Unfortunetly my camera died right before the tbirds flew :( However I did get some great shots of great planes like the F-22 ;D

One of only THREE authentic Japanese Zeros still flying
Image
The Texan formation. I know both those pilots
Image
The only FJ-4 Fury still flying and a MiG-15 and -17 in the background
Image
F-4 taking off for the Heritage flight
Image
Heritage Flight-They were so tight even with the 22
Image
The P-51 making a pass
Image
The F-22 up close (it was right there :o)
Image
The F-117 pass (It went to three other airshows just that day :o)

Comments Welcome 8)

P.S. For those who haven't seen it, the F-22 is so loud it's crazy and it's a hoss too ::) :o

Simply stunning! Great planes, sunny weather and the scenery... well, that's just beyond any European airshow I guess!

I don't know for sure if that's the word for it. But they have a certain `impossible' look about them.

That close shot is verging on intimate! Bravo on all of them sir.  ;)
