I lied before; I didn't have 1800 images to process.
More like just under 2200. Yeesh, this is gonna take a while.
But here are some from Wednesday.

I got to Linder at around 1545-ish, straight off my flight into TPA, so didn't see much of the daytime show. But the Jungmeister was a nice surprise, even if I couldn't hear its engine over the PA system...

Can't remember if that was Patty Wagstaff or Kevin Coleman performing as I was drooling over Ercoupes. Sorry; I just love me some Ercoupe.

Thursday's air show was cancelled due to a line of wicked storms passing through at just the wrong moment, but things cleared up nicely for the Sunset Aerial Circus. Gusty winds meant that only the STOL competition took place, but the contestants were rewarded with glorious sunshine and strong gusts straight down the grass runway.

STOL? Pfft, more like VTOL in this thing:

The evening also proved a good time to walk around the fly-in visitors

Great work! Love the Avenger with fireworks. I tried doing that using Placid Lassie as foreground but completely fudged the focus, so good on you for getting it right

Earlier this year, Patty Wagstaff Airshows acquired a 2008 Extra 330SC (N330KM, formerly G-IIHI) aircraft from aerobatic pilot Mark Jeffries. Patty's flew this aircraft on Wednesday, April 10th and Sunday, April 14th during the 2024 edition of SUN 'n FUN Aerospace Expo. The plane she flew for many years, the 1992 Extra 300S (N65EX), is now owned by Doug Litton. A video of her performances was captured by Horsemoney.
