Great set of pics. Looks like it was a good show, although the crowd seems sparse.

It was a good crowd considering we had a tropical storm brush the SC coast on Friday. They were not sure there would even be an airshow until Friday afternoon.

Great captures, was there also and really enjoyed the show. The Raptor put on a great show and was a hard one to get a shot of.

Love the B-1. Beautiful airplane, not so good performer. Whenever it came to my base for an open house it always had an engine change before it could leave. It has curves worthy of a beautiful woman though.

Love the B1 as well. I have to admit, I would loved to have seen the B-1, B-2, and F-117 at an airshow. Sadly I'll probably never get that opportunity.

The only one you will never see fly will be the F-117 as it is not flying anymore.Here is the ACC schedule for 2008 season's almost finished but as you can see the B-1 and B-2 do fly at airshows.

Click on Demo Schedule and there it is.

Well looks like the B2 is only scheduled for football flyovers. Maybe next year I can plan a trip around it. I really want to see one.

Ive seen the B-1 3 times this season and the B-2 4 times and I dont go to football games:) Just check out the airshows and you will find them. ;)
