Hi Guys:
Went to the Airshow at NAS Oceana, Va. today. Took 480 pictures. Have
deleted them down to 383. Thought I would put up a few today and a few
tomorrow, etc. It was a great air show, but the tropical storm off the
coast kept the clouds low (at times about 400 feet). Anyhow, enjoy the
pic's, there will be more.

Country: | Just as an aside..... there's an odd story about the Yak-9 in the photos.
Seems that some sixty years after the fact, someone found enough parts
in the old Yakovlev factory to build nine brand new/old Yak-9's. The owner
of this one bid one million bucks for this one, and his bid was accepted.
One catch...... no Russian engines were available. This particular one
has an Allison V-12 in it.
I'll put up more airshow pic's tonight.
Charles
