Default Luke AFB Openhouse Air Show

Aside from the disastrous handling of the parking lot shuttle bus (waiting for 2.5 HOURS to get from parking into the base)....the airshow itself was a great. Very few and high clouds, warm temps, plenty of space.

Here are some shots from the day. Still need to do some post-production work on many of them.


Thunderbird slow flight pass.

F-22A Demonstration. AMAZING!!!

Solo pilot over taking the slow birds.

F-22A Landing.
At the end of the demo, the narrator came on the horn to say that the Raptor was experiencing technical problems and would not be able to join up with the Heritage Flight. Bummer!!


PEEK-A-BOO!



I've never seen someone so unhappy to be looking at a T-6 II! Cute kid.

Unfortunately, I missed the A-10 demo and the CV-22 demo from being stuck out in the parking lot that was 1.5 miles away for 2.5 hours. All said, took a little over 500 shots. Fun day after the wait!
