Wow...

Great shots JW.

Is the Fry's 747 an SP? Can't tell from this angle.

That fat albert shot is pretty cool. I was wondering how the twilight show was going to be as i waited in line get out.

I was happy that the skies opened up when the F-22 took the stage. All my other pics have the unimpressive gray cloudy backdrop. Great timing by the weather gods!

Still photographs don't do the F-22 justice. The pilot did a great job of showing us just how manuverable that aircraft is.

Amazing shots! Th F-22 is an awsome shot but there is something about that 747 skimming the ground that just makes my jaw drop.

Very nice shots. Is it my imagination, or is that 747 using a left over tail section from a BUFF? Definitely a family resemblance there. :)

That's what makes me think it's an SP since the tail is so much out of proportion to the length.

Arrrgh!
I went on Friday, no 747 for us:(
Great shots, lots of moisture in the air contributing to the vapor build up on airframes. I took a break just when the F-22 flew.
More pics please;)
