Rhode Island Airshow & Open House (Quonset Point)

[captmjk16]

My best show of 2016 from a weather and photography perspective had to be Quonset Point. Despite the conspicuous absence of the Thunderbirds (the show was right after Tuna's ejection/crash) the show was rather successful, and it gave me an opportunity to get a behind the scenes look at the 2016 US Navy Legacy Hornet TACDEMO team as well as a hop in an RIANG Blackhawk.

Thanks Ricky! It helps to have nearly perfect light all weekend and plenty of opportunities to get the shot!
