Got up early this morning and stopped at Starbucks for my free tea before heading over to Chino to photograph this beauty!

That's cool. Which plane was he on? Nice website on the 384th BG!

Not sure I will be there by 11am as there is a big public Easter egg hunt here in Elsinore for kids that we are taking my daughter to. I can probably be there 12-1pm time frame. I might have my daughter with me since she likes airplanes.

Great shots! Isn't it neat to have an opportunity to be out with an airplane with no other people around and have it all to yourself? I've found myself in that situation now and then...great photo opportunity. Thanks for posting!

Aren't the hosts supposed to wipe off the bugs? :lol:

I imagine the cheeseheads didn't think of bringing bug remover. KOSH just had 7 inches of snow.


Just give it time though...

Those are water spots. The dew sets upon the morning cows...
