AirVenture '09

Postby Mobius » Fri Jul 31, 2009 9:35 pm

Went up to Oshkosh today, mostly to see the A380, and a bit of everything else. ;)

The thing was so huge, I had to take 4 pictures and stitch them together to get it all in...

A few more pictures of the A380, last one is of the tire tracks after they pulled it out, click on them to get the full size...

I believe I see "Gunfighter" there in the P-51s.  It left out of here last week, being flown by one of our local warbird pilots.

Good pics, I was there from Sunday to Thursday. I was spent most of my time around the homebuilts and the ultralight field.
