it was pretty cool besides the traffic...it took 2 hours just to get there and i live like 25 min. away. The best part was the warthogs. BLue angels were sweet but near the end they were getting repetitive....

I watched the whole routine the Blue Angles flew from an overpass about 4-5 miles from mather.Its was great but I am more of a fan of the USAF's demonstration team,The Thunderbirds. I believe they will be at the Travis airshow.

I drew a lot of my inspiration from stevofett on this shoot (thanks, even though you don't know me). I have a couple good shots, but here are three (they look great on 35mm, not scanned into my computer):

Thanks for the cool pics. I couldn't go.
If you give to a charity please think of giving to one of these two charities. The Naval Special Warfare Foundation or Navy SEAL Warrior Fund.
