Here are a few of my photos taken at the recent ProBro (Profile Brotherhood) fly-in at Bomber field in Houston, Texas. I fly at, video, and photograph these airplane events and ProPros and some of my favorite events because everyone just wants to have good time. C&C welcome!

Nice shots, looks like it would be fun. Never seen an rc that big. Thanks for sharing.

Don't you RC aviators have a big throwdown overseas this month? I thought I saw something glancing through PopSci.

Great shots! RC planes are difficult since they are so small. Do they just burn thhe crashed ones afterwards?

No not at normal events they usually don't. At ProBro events if the planes are beyond repair or too old to do anything with we just burn them and play around with the wreckage in fun ways. A lot of these guys travel across the country and taking home a wreck isn't worth it.

Excellent work. I'm an aspiring pj and your pictures are inspiring to say the least. It's really nice to see someone else trying to tell a story and show something other than "this is what he looks like here, and that is what he looks like there, and here is a car." Your pictures tell a story on top of being technically great. I really appreciate the shots.
