Thunder over Michigan - part 2

The rest of the photos, lots and lots of Mustangs.

F-86 Sabre.

P-38 Lockheed Lightning. One of only 6 or 7 still flying.

This little guy has nothing to do with the airshow. He's been living in our pool skimmer all summer so he's kind of part of the family now.

Thunder over Michigan - part 1

I spent Sunday the 4th at Willow Run airport for the Thunder over Michigan airshow.

Before the airshow they had a WWII battle reenactment.

One thing you have to love about warbirds is the Nose Art.

They also had car show.

Pt-17 Sterman. My dad used to fly one of these back in the late 60's.

I had to look for a while but I found this, me at 12 years old on my dad's Sterman. I once threw up while flying in the front cockpit of this plane, what a mess.

AT-6 trainers flying in formation.

B-29 SuperFortress. This is supposed to be the only one of the thousands built that is still flying.

Battle Creek Fields of Flight airshow - USAF Thunderbirds

The highlight of the show was of course the Thunderbirds. I could try to describe each of these photos but really, it's just amazing what these people do, so perfect everytime. It's fun to see the pilots treated like rock stars when they come out to sign autographs after the show.
