I wish I knew more about it. It's the first time i've seen one. I'm glad I stayed around later on Sunday to get to see the smokey startup and fly-bys.

I'm shooting with a Canon XSi, EF-S 18-55mm IS & EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS lenses. Pretty basic stuff for a DSLR. I'm hoping to add some new lenses by next season but with so many hobbies it's hard to save up.
