Chino Airshow 2011 Pictures

syscom3 · May 15, 2011

Here's the first set of pics. We had low clouds all morning, giving way to partly sunny sky's. Temps were quite pleasant.

I also met up with "violator" and had a great time talking about warbirds and the airshow.

It was great watching the FW190 up in the air with the P47D. Simply amazing. I have video of it and will get that uploaded soon.

I took these ground pics of the FW. I will be posting more as time permits.

Thanks to Syscom for meeting me at the show and spending the better part of the day chatting and watching the great show. He's the first person from this forum I've met in person and I had a fantastic time.

If anyone has thought about going to this show but just hasn't pulled the trigger, I strongly encourage you to find a way. The number of warbirds was staggering. One of the highlights of the show was when they had 28 of them in the air at the same time. 28!!! Anywhere, here are a few of my pics:

I went out on Sunday, got poured on in the morning, then it cleared up and we got some great flying. Here are a few samples from my day of shooting.

I agree. The rain and wind blew out the smog and haze that's prevalent there.

I like the Skyraider shot. Good job Evan!

Crimea_River · May 19, 2011

Great shots Eric!

Gnomey · May 19, 2011

Excellent shots Eric!

evangilder · May 19, 2011

Thanks guys. It was a lot of fun.

Great shots guys, my daughter and I went Sunday and met up with Wheels and had a great time except for the rain. My daughter was freezing cold, so we had to leave about 10:15. I wish we could have stayed. Maybe the next air show we can all meet somewhere and just get acquainted I didn't get very many shots
