Wow, that's early.

Wow, that's early.
Yea, that's when the racers start arriving:headbang:

If I can scrounge up enough loose change, I'll try to get out there on the 13th. If not, I'll do what we (wife and I) did last year; we parked in a field off a highway a couple miles south of 4SD and watched the air performances in the distance ~ we left after the Canadian Snowbirds finished their show. I did get long-range pics; not super great but good enough for some prints for my album. :-)

I will be there on the 12th and 13th also. I may be volunteering on Sunday to do "parking control" with my Knights of Columbus group - if that happens I will be roaming the South side of the airport on my breaks!

You mean this spot?:

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=&sll=39.605688,-119.73999&sspn=1.766898,2.639465&ie=UTF8&ll=39.649782,-119.85658&spn=0.003449,0.005155&t=h&z=18

I have watched from there also, it isn't that bad of a spot.

I will be posting a few of these in the gallery for sure, but for now..
85 Images so I will put a few highlights then link to the rest. SmugMug also does something to the images that softens them a bit, I am working on that.
