Hi All,

Finally had a chance to put together a gallery from Friday 5/5/17 at POF. I had to leave around 3PM to get back for work and was working all weekend so couldn’t get to the show proper.

This year I decided to shoot more video than stills so the gallery is lighter on photos. Be sure and check out the 17:30 minute video that is the first entrant in the gallery for a more satisfying taste of what was going on during the day.

Never did see any shots of the two SBD's flying. Did they not get together during the show?

Didn't get any really great photos of them together, but they did get together during the Sunday show.

Awesome. I'd love to see even one Dauntless fly, but to see two together is fantastic!

Thanks Zac, Andy, and Kyle!!

Just one of many amazing formations that were displayed during the weekend!

Here's a closer look at both of them.

I love that POF's was flying with the canopy open.
