AAFB Air Show Randoms

Postby FuturePilot » Sat May 15, 2010 7:55 pm

I went to the airshow today and got some pictures, here are four of my favorites.

#1: Helicopter maneuvers
Image

#2: Does anyone know what type of aircraft these are?
Image

#3: Look closely, there are two aircraft here; one is upside down.
Image

#4: Blue Angels splitting up!
Image

Thanks for looking!
Comments and advice both welcome.  :)

Looks like a nice day for an airshow, that last shot is very special. Thanks for sharing. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Those 'aircraft' look like T-6 Texans/Harvard. ;)

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Yeah, it was great! It took me forever to get any good shots though! I took like 50-60 pics and got about 12 that turned out good.
