Ken Middleton Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Finally processed the 400 images narrowed down from the 1800 taken....I know some of you guys wanted to get together, and I apologize not doing so....I was so busy I didn't even get to wander the statics until the TBirds were flying on Sunday. I missed out on the VFC-111 F-5 that came in, but then left either late Saturday, or early Sunday. To the pics....the US Army Golden Knights....they didn't end up jumping on this flight due to the winds Under Pressure jet rescue vehicle Friday night Even my 9 year old son used my D50 for a while.... More civilian stuff... Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Cartwright Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Very nice pictures, from you and your son! One thing I didn't expect (and have never heard of): A S-3 demo? Pretty interesting! Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Middleton Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 Gregg, Willie, JR, Ray, Frank and Ken thanks a lot - Michael is pretty proud of the nice comments. Here is a Golden Knights shot of his Frank, he also took a shot of the trailer used for the airshow announcer, and we particularly liked one of the stickers. (I had to blur out one that was inappropriate, and didn't even notice it until just now) Ken - yes, the S-3 demo was neat to watch Link to post Share on other sites

David Walker Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 (edited) Just a great set of photos. And as mentioned above, I'd love to see an S-3 demo. I've never been to an airshow where one of those was done before. Edited September 3, 2007 by David Walker Link to post Share on other sites
