Aww Chuck, that means I missed seeing you! It's been way too long ![frown.gif](https://www.s2ki.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
But I had a great time... other than trying to hide from the sun!
Thanks, Mike, for setting it up. And I forgive you for the faux pas

Only 4 pics? You were shooting like crazy. You got to have much more good shots. Well, I'll post my pics of the static displays. My little point and shoot could not get the planes in the air very well.
Here we go.
My favorite shot of the day of the huge B-52.

The old C-5 have been upgraded with screens instead of all the dials.

The C-5 has full living quarters with also a kitchen. Make sure to buckle up before you sleep though. Haha

This is now an old plane, but still amazing.

That was a great show, sorry I missed meting up with you guys, but the girlfriend didn'tg et off work till 2am, so we got out there a little later than we had wanted. It was a great show, To bad it was so windy so we couldn't see the Army demonstration squad parashoot squad, I have seen them before and they are pretty amazing.
I got all excited seeing the black C-130 thinking that it might be a AC-130 Spectre gun ship, but no such luck. I haven't been inside a C-5 since I was in Japan so that was neat to show my girlfriend where things were at.
That C-17 is a pretty amazing plane, that big yet so quiet and manuverable. What did everyone think of all the kids taking their oath of enlistements? That was really cool!!! AS always Thunderbirds put on a spectacular show. I had fun!
