While I was flying around last Thursday, I actually heard air traffic control in Huntsville talking with some of the Blue Angel pilots as they practiced for the upcoming airshow that weekend. I was on the far western edge of the Huntsville airspace so I wasn’t near enough to see them flying around. It was pretty neat to hear the chatter though.
After making it through some hellacious traffic, I finally made it to our tent at the show Saturday. My company was a sponsor of the event and as such, we had a prime spot to view the show from along with clients. It was a beautiful day for the show and conditions were great. This in stark contrast to Sunday. Luckily, I wasn’t there Sunday. None of my co-workers or clients were involved in the weather event that day (if you heard about it in the news).
I brought my camera along of course and got some photos of the performers.
Great photos, man, as usual. I had a friend who was in one of the tents that Sunday. He wasn’t seriously injured, but he was pretty shaken up.
I’m so confused.
This post showed up in Reader, but when I came to read it and comment on your amazing photos, it wasn’t here. Now it is? Am I going crazy (always a possibility) or did you pull it and then post it again?
Bone: Thanks for the compliments. I’m glad your friend was ok.
TC: Yes, I had a posting malfunction and posted, then deleted the post… THEN re-posted it. You’re not going crazy!
OK, well, that’s reassuring at the very least
‘Phew… I was worried there for a few minutes!
