I'm a big fan of the Northrop N9MB Flying Wing. I've been taking photos of the plane for the past 8 years, as it performed often at Southern California air shows.
I started a flickr album containing over 50 photos of the flying wing. I still have more to add. Sadly, the aircraft was destroyed and the pilot lost his life in a crash last April 2019.

Here's one of my favorites...

I would have loved to shoot that plane. Wish a lot of airshows didn't have to be so regional as far as acts although it is understandable...

I recently came across this video from the Planes of Fame Museum. It's a tribute to the pilot David Vopat.
