Just got through reviewing these shots from last weekend.

Weather and layout combined to make a terrible shooting session - the sun was directly behind "show-center" and the clouds did their best to mess with exposure - but the selection of planes was amazing! The crowd was small - so the static displays where wide open for nice shots.

The Mustang, Wildcat, Zero(T-6) (Replica from Tora-Tora-Tora), Provost, Hueys (2), Chinook and stunt teams where excellent - but the Skyraider, Mig-17, and Ah-1 Cobra flights where highpoints for me. (Except that the three helicopters landing within 100 yards of me seems to have put dust into the working of my camera!)
