Air Show 2009

If you have never been to the Air show put on at Hill Air Force Base, you are missing out. It is a free event with spectacular shows. My favorite (I think that others feel the same) is the Thunderbird performance.



This year I went to the show early with Scott O. Smith and Ziggy Peacock. We showed up early in an attempt to get better shots of the planes before the crowds arrived. I think about 100,000 other Utahns had the same thing in mind. Sometimes crowds can make your photos more interesting.



I particularly like the sense of patriotism this one emits:



This plane had no one around it because it was not part of the exhibit but part of the air show!





Clayton loved the smaller planes that were spinning and doing aerial acrobatics.



I really liked the C-17, it is huge!



A few more of those Thunderbirds!
