Some shots I took at the Alliance air show in Fort Worth, Texas. I was there early in the morning before much flying was going on.

Thunderbirds parked just off the runway.

I like them but my only nitpick is that the 2nd one is terribly out of focus... did you take multiple shots for all of these or just one shot?

it seems like they all were taken with one shot, making them not a pano... just wondering...

I really like the first one though...

The second one is the only one that is a pano. Made from two shots. I think when I uploaded it to Photobucket they resized it again and lost some of the sharpness.

Cool shots of the Tbirds. My brother lives right there off 35, one exit south of Cabela's.

too bad the bit OOF of number 2
I ' ve never seen that Mohawk before
Is it experimental for real, like a new airplane? or is been around and I just haven't seen it

It's experimental because it's privately owned (I think). It was used for recon, spotting rescue in Viet Nam. It could also carry some bombs and rockets, 50 cal. machine guns. It has a nice shape to my eye.

Cool shots. You don't see Mohawks too often these days...

I think this is the first time I've ever seen one in flying condition.
