Yup that's the plan lots of photos. Will be taking 2 cameras like last time except I'll be armed with the mighty new Pentax K200D which has just got itself a nice new big lense. Hopefully means some decent in flight shots too!

There is an Airshow in Reading PA this year, Njaco will start a thread with more info...

But a bunch of us are trying to make arrangements to meet up

I can't wait for pics!

G'day fellas. Haven't been around the past few days due to life taking precedent and it will probably remain like this for the rest of the year. I did however get to the Pageant this year and it was really good. The Sea Fury was a no show and only 1 DC3 arrived. Still the weather held off was over cast but cleared to a sunny but windy afternoon. As a result the replica Sopwith Pup didn't fly.

Anyway heres a few shots to get this thread started. I'll throw some shots when I can.

Cheers.

Dang, and I thought it was going to be a P-40B or C. Though that shark mouth P-51D looked awesome, as well as that Vampire.

 

[Wayne Little]

'bout time you dropped in Alex!

Great pics man!

 

[Heinz]

Thanks guys, yeah this was the first airshow using the Pentax + the telephoto lens which meant I could manage some decent high res shots.

More to come.l
