Planes of Fame: Chino Air Show

[ontos]

Went to the Chino Airshow Sunday, had a great father and daughter day. It was a fantastic show. Here are some shots I took, hope you enjoy. I took plenty of water and Sunblock. I couldn't find you Eric or Wheels

I'm so jealous man. You did a fabulous job Merv!! I think you've got the pan shot down. There is not a bad shot in the set. Great work!!!

Dang Eric, my daughter and I were just to the east of the A-4 next to the railing. Sorry I missed you guys. I was going to try and see if we all could meet, but for some strange reason I could not log onto the web site till yesterday. Don't figure.

Thank you all for your kind comments, it was awful hazy but I did get some decent shots. I need to practice camera settings on hazy days

I'll post some more later, I can't wait to see your shots Eric

Aaron, I'm the jealous one, you have barns and great rivers

Nice ones, Merv! I should really merge all the Chino threads, I think we ahve about 3-4 of them now. Anyway, a small sample of my shots are in syscom's thread:

That looks like a real A6M with the SBD, not a modified T6. Correct?

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Hey Merv, I'll trade locations. Just kidding.

 

[GrauGeist]

Well done, Merv!

What an excellent collection of shots you got!

Some of the shots looks like you and Eric grabbed 'em at the same time!

That looks like a real A6M with the SBD, not a modified T6. Correct?

That definately looks like a real A6M

Yep, that is an A6M5 with an original Sakae engine in it.
