Re: 2024 CenterPoint Energy Dayton Air Show

Guys I know it’s hard to hear but the days of old are gone. There is very little variety now as it is. With either people retiring, leaving the industry, or the unfortunate nature of the business, with very little new acts appearing yearly , there is very little variety out there anymore. It’s a bi...

Re: Helicopter demos at US airshows?

While there aren’t any true helicopter demonstration teams with exception to the marine osprey. You’ll find that the local army will normally do a few passes at an Airshow close to them.

Re: JBSA's "The Great Texas Air Show" 2024

Does anyone know the reason why we don't see the B-1, B-52, F-18 Rhino, and other performers not on the show schedule vs what they posted on the performers tab?

Re: JBSA's "The Great Texas Air Show" 2024

Re: Thunder Over Louisville 2024

What side is will be the best for lighting? Im trying to get some good light shots of the Bone. Entirely depends on time of day and the angle you want.
