We went to the airshow on Saturday. It was my first ever airshow, and I LOVED it! It was soooo exciting. I loved the planes and all the great aerial-acrobatics they did. Amazing. Simply Amazing! We got to see The Patriot Jet Demonstration Team... they were GREAT!
Here was nice low pass...
the Patriots again
I snapped the picture just a little early... but still a cool shot!
Then we got a rare treat- a U2 came down from it's HIGH altitude to do a fly by. Apparently after leaving us he was headed back to his 60,000 ft (after receiving his clearance to do so, of course)! :) Here's a couple of pics:
It was so awesome to see! :) Then came the parachuting team. They were pretty impressive!
Then came the great bi-plane demonstration! He was amazing! Watch the video!! (will be posted next) But here's the best picture we have of him... he was kinda small compared to the other aircraft, and we don't have a telephoto lens on our little point n shoot camera!
Next came the "historical flights" with a modern day A-10 and a P-52 Mustang. (I think)--
And then finally the event we were all waiting for, the THUNDERBIRDS!!!! :) I had witnessed them practicing Friday afternoon and got soooo excited to see them. They are amazing! Here's some pictures (and I will post video also).
Wow!!
The Calypso Pass
Overall, we had a GREAT time, and I really enjoyed my first airshow, and I can't wait until the next one comes to town. I will definitely be attending!! Thanks for taking me Wade! I loved it!!!
