Everyone is used to seeing planes pass in opposing directions at high speed, but when Apache helicopters do it, everyone cringes.
The Raptor was the main attraction. I was happy to get a shot of it with the weapons bay doors open (not typically seen). I was even happier that the pilot turned the plane before it was too big for my frame (that shot is uncropped)
Thanks to our brave men and women in uniform whenever and wherever they may be.
Nice shots!
That new Raptor is sick...:thumbsup:

LOL, first pic, . . . can't get enough airshow pics - some great shots !
The prop driven birds are my favorite since I grew up with them, but the copters and jets are pretty amazing when they are put through their paces !
Thanks for the Dayton airshow Loupey ! :thumbsup:
Randy, Gear - 3 in the green, with a T2i and some lenses !
Wow, I can't believe it's been three years since I posted these (and since the last airshow I've been to).
This weekend (23rd and 24th) will be the dates. Weather forecast is about the same - extremely hot with humid and hazy air to shoot through. If anyone is interested, more information can be found here:
