These are just random photos from the show.Please keep in mind I'm no photographer and thus these aren't the highest quality photos enjoy.

Bud, if you shoot pictures like those, you are a photographer.

Ditto! You got some good shots there! Thanks for sharing. Looks like a nice Vietnam combo there, although having an orbiting Cobra would have been a nice addition. Are there any civilian Cobras on the warbird circuit?

Don't know about everywhere else, but there's one here in Midland that is privately owned. He brings it to the CAF show every year.

Nice photos! Looks like you were in about the same area as I was for most of the show.

We get a great demo from this one in Olympia every summer

Every one at TOM are just the nicest people.

Parazer, Good photos!!! Thanks for posting them. In your Lancaster photo
you can see the solid line of traffic waiting to get in. That was there all
day till they closed the road for the Blues.

Thanks also for starting a general photo thread for the show.
Below are a few shots I got over the weekend.

These are the only others I have and yes the TOM people where great , every day they had refreshments and food for us.

I was just happy to be there since I picked up the show three weeks ago after begging for three days.

As a first year on the Blues you can't request what shows you want but everyone on the team found out what a warbird nut I'am and hopefully that will help out to pick more warbird friendly shows next year.

Great pictures, I was at the show also on Sunday, waited almost 2 hours in traffic to get into parking. We had a good spot in the traffic jam, right were the Lancaster and the fighters were starting there run for airshow center, it was an amazing view.

The camera is a Kodak Z740 with auto settings nothing spectacular. BTW it's 6 years old but it does have a glass lens. :D

Great shots, but why'd you take that picture of that ugly blue skyraider? :P :wink:
