Default Planes of fame

Hi all,

Went to the vintage warbird museum named planes of fame in Chino, CA. They have really grown over the last few years. Most of these planes are in flyable condition and you may recognize them from movies and tv shows. Enough rambling here are a few of my keepers.

B-25


P-40 Warhawk


F4U Corsair


Mig 15






CC welcome. You can view the rest of the gallery here. Thanks for looking.

Definitely digging #6, love the wide stuff!

The Warhawk picture keeps looking better little by little the more I see it; interesting shot.

I like the black and white ones, but the rest don't do it for me

I think you took a very different approach with these shots and I think they paid off. I like them

Thanks all. I went with a mindset of trying to capture the light. It was a fun experience and I can't wait until the airshow they produce in May. If anyone is interested you can make a donation to the museum for a good chunk and they will take you up in one of the warbirds for 20 minutes.
