Spooky, I think you need to be a professional photographer. If you aren't already.


Thanks! I just consider myself an amateur photographer and enjoy sharing my pics with you guys. I leave for the Abbotsford show tomorrow and will get to settle in next week and post more Oshkosh (and Abbotsford) shots.

I don't think i've seen a much better grouping than this. I wish it would've flown more than one day.

And now for pics of what some of you have been waiting for... The WIX recruiting mission. :D

This is on the way from Zack's house. We were all packed in Chris' (Mustangdriver) rental car. Then a certain photog (cough, cough, AL aka Spookythecat) turned the car into a disco bar with the flash from his camera. Oh yah, Chris, did you ever get that cone out from underneath the car? :lol:

Image

Then on to the recruiting effort. Dan K, Zack, and I really had it rough. :lol:

That cone had it coming. :lol: It was a fun night, as you can see I got a bit burned. We fit like 7 or 8 people into a Ford Crown Vic. Just always such a great time with the WIX gang

Thanks, guys (ref: Alan Brooks and flyingsailor's posts before Spooky took us to outer space with his pix). That's the exact kind of unspectacular boring stuff that really needs to be broadcast on a place like this - WIX - so that we interested erstwhile peanut gallery types might know where to go, who to contact, etc., etc., in case it becomes possible that we can jump in and give a hand in whatever form. At the very least, it's good educational reading. Debates on tramp stamps are great fun and all (my favorite, actually! :D ), but this sorta thing is useful too. :P

Great pix, Trey. Keep 'em coming. I'm about halfway through sorting mine down.

By the way, when do we start the "Official" Airventure 2009 thread? :)

(Sorry if someone's already asked in the first 22 pages)

Thank you, thank you, thank you all for the spectacular pics. I've saved a bunch of them into my screensaver folder at work. They're great for when I have someone in my office for a conference.

And while this is a warbird forum, any pics of experimentals & homebuilts would be very welcome as well!

In looking at the great shots of the Heritage Flight, I find it interesting that the F-86 flys with a nose high attitude and the booms of the P-38 make it appear to be flying with a nose down attitude. Side by each I find the look unique. 8)
