john53 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Great pics! Like the T-33 ind ADC gray. Is that Canadian Hornet in BOB scheme? I spent 60 of 62 years in New England, loved RI show, in FL now and haven't seen Blues once, this is second time this year they are in New England, still going to be in Maine for one more show! I guess I picked the wrong time to move to FL! Did you get any Snowbird shots at Westover?---John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was at Westover 2 weeks ago as well. I got some shots of the Snowbirds at both Westover and Quonset; I have lots to edit still, Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites

yardbird78 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) Astonishingly gorgeous photography. What kind of lens were you using and how close to the flight line were you? I love the S.A.C. emblem on the tail of the T-Bird. Darwin Edited June 1, 2015 by yardbird78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

82Whitey51 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) Nice work! That shot of the Blues solo head on pass is a great reference for building a Blue Angels F/A-18...they don't always look so monochromatic I guess. A great look at the walkways too, that is a detail missed a lot of the time on the Blues F/A-18s...a set of Steel Beach F/A-18 walkway masks would be a great way to paint those on. Man, if I owned that T-33 it would be painted up in 101st FIS markings in a second. Wow...what a busy couple of weeks up there in New England on the airshow scene!

dekon70 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Great shots Ken. Last year was a great show also. I didn't go this year due to the fact that the family and I had to wait for 2 1/2 hours last year to get on the shuttle bus to get back to the parking lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I left Saturday at 5:40PM and got to Route 4 at 6:30PM, and then it was a bit of a traffic jam on 4 onto 95, but then 295 was clear sailing Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gary1701 Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Hi Ken, Wow, look at all that in lovely blue skies. I do think that CAF CF-188 looks superb in that scheme. Top notch. Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
