    Thanks guys. Been photographing the fire scorching here. 96,000 acres and only 5% containment. I'll post some soon. Just trying to keep everyone safe.

    Air Venture 2017

    You got some nice ones, Paul! Seeing this thread makes me look forward to it in 2018. Exhausting, yet exhilarating to be out there all day long shooting, editing long into the night for the news, then getting up early to do it all over again. It pushes the limits of anyone's endurance, but there...

    Oshkosh 2018

    I will most likely be working the show next year as well. I work with a news agency, so all the accomodations are worked out in advance, but it would be cool to see if other members come out to it to and get a group together for a post show dinner or to hang out.

    Look what the cat dragged in!

    Hey fellas! It's been a long time since I've been here and it's gonna take a little to adjust to the new format. I've gone through a number of changes, got divorced, found a new love and am enjoying rediscovering some things that were lost over the years. I'm still doing photography, and am...

    The worlds most unlikely victory, i present: The C-47 over Japanese fighter

    That is interesting. I know there was a C-46 over the Himalayas that had the co-pilot shoot down a Japanese fighter with a BAR pointed out the side window, but this one took some timing, and big brass balls!

    From what I have heard, it is an accurate pre-war scheme.

    Wow, I like the way you put that, Shinpachi-san. I am very passionate about my work, and I know my shots look different if it's a subject I am not interested in. Yeah, they aren't real common, oddly.

    Thanks guys. Weather forecast for today look like total cr@p. So the 4.5 hours I got yesterday is all I have for this year's show at Cable. But 180 miles of driving and $10 isn't too bad for nabbing 1600+ images. :) I have them all filed and am starting the edits. Here are a couple of more...

    Thanks, Shinpachi-san. The weather wasn't good, but I did manage to rap off a few good shots.

    Hit the first airshow of the season today. It started looking okay, and the skies grayed up and got bleaker as the morning progressed. The rain started at about 12:30 and that's when I had enough, especially after pulling up the doppler RADAR on my phone. But I finally got to see an ME-108...

    USAF European Base closures

    Looks like Mildenhall, Alconbury and Molesworth in the UK are closing. Lakenheath will be getting the F-35 in 2020. More closures in Germany, Italy and others. Alconbury and Molesworth are the last of the USAAF WWII airfields that were still in use by the USAF in the UK. RAF Mildenhall to...
