Yankee's two newest paint schemes looked stunning departing in the perfect evening light from Ecorse Rd.

I know I'm way behind the times but I wanted to share a few photos from the show! This is the second show I've been to with a camera so I used it as kind of a practice run and to try out some equipment for Thunder next month.

I've seen B-17 demos before but it was my first time seeing everything else so it was a pretty exciting evening!

Thanks Ryan, Three Coast Av guy and Click J for your photos. Click J looks like you to were on the south side of the show battling the sun and inspired me to post some images from Sat. Pretty awesome show an kudos to the YAM Staff for and enjoyable 2 night show. What happened to the CF-18 that the special painted one did not fly Sat or Sun?

Nice pics! I really liked the clouds that day, with the right angle I thought they gave some photos an air-to-air feel. Yep I was on the south side, the sun was frustrating for sure.

I wondered the same thing about the CF-18. I really like their colorful paint jobs so I was a little bummed when they announced it would be more muted this year and then that one didn’t even fly. I’ll just have to see them again sometime :D .

Not unusual for our 40+ year old Cf-18's to go technical.

The jet had an avionics issue after the Friday practice so they had a spare flown in and used that instead.

Thanks for sharing!!
