This year was no different. We had nice seats in Julie's company chalet. It was cool and cloudy which made it nice for not burning my Irish skin but not so nice for visibility. Regardless, the planes were big, fast and loud. I lucked into a few good shots out of hundreds taken. Following supersonic jets with a zoom lens is hard. At least as hard as flying the actual jets.

Your knowledge of airplanes is so limited, you can't even spell the word correctly.

Laughing at Kip's comment. I must have missed where you misspelled it. Conner is in love. He just said "I wish I had something fancy like those planes. There is a lot to learn about planes mom. There is all kind of things you can learn about planes mom". Hilarious. Apparently he shares your thoughts. I didn't even read to him what you had wrote. Lastly he said "I can't believe James sent a copy of them". We need to print these for Conner.
I have always wanted to go to an airshow. Looks like fun!
Thank you, Kip. My life would be incomplete without you.
Chan - You guys should come next year. Conner would LOVE it.
Great pictures!
Awesome pics as always. Love the shot of Jameson flying around the B2.
Chandra, you guys *should* come to the airshow next year. It's the second largest in the world after Paris' and is loaded with cool things to look at. It's a total boytosterone event.
Do they still do the napalm carpet bombing demonstration? Because that's scary as hell.
Yes, the carpet bombing demonstration is still around. It's so intense that it makes it hard to imagine what the real thing is like.
I love the action shot of Jameson jumping off the chair, too funny.
Chandra, the week of Quentin's wedding is the Oshkosh Wisconsin airshow, I might go since it's about 6 hours from Ft Wayne. It's the "biggest" airshow in the world, 10,000 planes in all. b/c it's a fly-in, with lots of small aircraft on display. Also has stunt performers, military air craft, and rides in airplanes such as the B-17. http://www.airventure.org/attractions/
