Thanks guys. It's been too long since I had a show to shoot, and was fortunate to get out and not only shoot my usual shots, but to push the envelope in my shooting and get way outside of my comfort zone. I was playing around with insanely low shutter speeds to try and get some good pan shots. Some were better than others. But only the best for you guys.

Here are a few others...

I saw the C17 do its practice runs when I was at the museum.

The turns the C-17 are capable of are amazing. To see a big whale like that cranking a 60 degree bank and a tight 360 is very impressive.

Even more great shots Eric, I like the C-17 with dust behind it. Really looks like in your face type of stuff.

Yep, the C-17 demo is one of the highlights of the show. It's quite something.

The book project is coming along slowly, but surely. I have been in the process of editing photos and have been outlining the text for it. I don't know when it will be completed yet.

Heritage flights are always great. It's a cool sound to hear the radial and the jet engine at the same time.

Dont forget to check out my thread on the March AFB museum.

While Eric was busy with the planes in the air, I was took care of the no longer flying museum pieces on the other end of the base.
