Thanks for sharing your pics Brad.

Thanks for sharing your photos! There were obviously some interesting aircraft present. It would be a treat to see the V-22 Osprey. They're built right here in the D/FW area, and I have yet to see one!
Damned shame about the loss of LCDR Davis in Blue Angel No. 6. His soul is in the hands of the Lord, a place we'd all like to end up some day when it's our turn to "go west".
Do you have any idea what Beaufort County uses the C-131F for? Gotta love those Twin Convairs!
Cheers!

I doubt you'll ever see any more than the test aircraft around here Dean. The V-22 fleet final assembly line is in Amarillo. The plant down here only does subassembly work.

Nice shots, Brad.

It's a tragedy what happened, but it's great to see the highlights of the show, the airplanes and those who fly them.

Dean,
Beaufort County uses its fleet of 3 C-131F's for mosquito control.
They're based at Frogmore International Airport (Beaufort County).

Hey Walt, I bet there ain't too many people on here that know about Frogmore Int.

My wife grew up in Beaufort, & we were there for the Water Fest. Air Show last summer. On a serious note, our thoughts & prayers go out to those affected by the loss of LCDR Davis.

I spent a while talking to LCDR (then a LT) Davis at a reception for the Blues at Charleston AFB in May of last year. My wife had a picture taken with him. We were both saddened to hear of his loss. A genuinely nice, down-to-earth guy.
