Wow, what an Airshow. This was one of the best all around airshows I have been to. A lot of this had to do with the VIP access that @Rossnelson and I had (Thanks @Pafford). We were at show center, as close as you could be. I was so close that when the Blue Angles fired up their engines and then made a turn on the ground you could feel the heat and jet wash. The lineup was great. For me seeing the A-10 Warthog fly was fantastic. This has always been one of my favorite planes since when I was young. It really amazed me how maneuverable it was. If only they could have shot its Gatling gun. I also had a neat opportunity to see another B-2 stealth bomber flying. This one was named after Nebraska. This was great since the last time I saw the B-2 I was not really close enough to get good photos of it. It was also rare since it did not land and was only at the show on Saturday for 3 passes only. The Blue Angles put on a good show as always. Their precision flying really is amazing. The show was not as fast or as loud as I remember though. I would have to say that the F-15 at the Offutt show a few weeks prior to this one was louder and had sharper turns. One of the Blue Angles did have mechanical troubles it looked like and he landed early. The last flying B-29 was cool too. It is amazing that there is only one left flying today, considering how many of them were made during WWII.
The bad, was that parking was terrible. We must have parked in the worst possibly place because it took 1:45 to get off the air base. Granted they said over 250,000 people came to the show over the weekend but we expected traffic to be better.
Enjoy the photos below. They are only a small set of the more than 600 I took that day. View the rest of my edited photos from the Airshow on my G+ gallery at http://goo.gl/Enn9P
