bp-guy Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Yesterday I decided to check out the the final day of the air-show. It was a cloudy day but figured it would be a good time to try out my camera on high speed planes and see how I could do. The clouds really messed with the auto focus but I managed to get a few good ones. I had to leave before the Blue Angels took off to go to work but it was a cool show regardless. And the picture with the helocopter upsidedown is real. The thing is very cool. It did loops and barrel rolls. Planes off to the side F-15 preparing for takeoff F-15 taking off Army Golden Knights Plane and the Oracle Stunt Plane 1st Jumper leaving Plane Most of them out now Low fly by Canadian Snow-Birds Big azz Helo's Jet powered Semi Redbull Stunt Plane Wall Of Fire (I coud feel the heat!)

Jakster884 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Nice planes and Air shows are cool to peep. I make the bolts that hold them wings together on the F-16 and F-15. Nortrop and Lockheed. And many other millitary planes. Did they have the new JSF Joint strike fighter. :porn: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp-guy Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 (edited) I didn't see that (JSF). As I was leaving the Harrier plane was up and hovering. No real new technology was on display this year from what I saw. Edited October 5, 2009 by bp-guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Great shots Tim! Did you have your camera set at AI focus? Not sure if you knew, but that helps focus with fast moving objects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FE135 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 There will be an airshow here at Edwards AFB Oct 17th. Since we test everything, should be a nice sampling of aircraft. Don't know if F-35(JSF) will show but we got F-22's. Very nice pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bp-guy Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 (edited) My daughter wanted to go then my wife said she was going to shop for HANNAH MONTANA decorations for her room so my little one bailed on me! Bring ear plugs for the kids, it gets loud. So I went alone for a few hours. My next stop is the NHRA drag races, I am really wanting to photgraph that!

superdave Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I didn't see that (JSF). As I was leaving the Harrier plane was up and hovering. No real new technology was on display this year from what I saw. we used to go to the air show at ellington airforce base in houston many years ago. the harrier put on the best show i ever saw. what an impressive airplane. it was so cool it gave me goosebumps watching. had to be there to appreciate.
