Here are a few pics of the super hornet. Conditions were horrible but these were able to be PP to a presentable level.

Nice shots, WinMan! I'm still pouting because I didn't get to go.

The conditions don't look "horrible." You got some great shots, and I love #5!

He was probably shooting around the clouds. Saturday it was mostly cloudy and pretty windy and Sunday it was overcast and windy.

Hehe, thx for the comments. The skys were horrible for taking pictures. There was so much vapor in the air that it looked like you were looking through a bbq pit heat wave on every pic. I was deff shooting through the clouds as the shots were taken for those few seconds where a break in the sky was.

Great set well presented.

As you said, even in poor conditions, with some PP you managed to save the day.
