Back in October there was an air show out at the air national guard base near where we live. We'd been to several air shows over the years and they're always pretty fun.
We arrived in the morning and stayed through the afternoon, when the last show ended.
First up, we saw the Snowbirds from the Royal Canadian Air Force. We had seen them quite a few years ago at an air show in Canada, and they put on a great show!
The Snowbirds ended their show with their representation of a maple leaf.
After the Snowbirds there were a few other a few other planes that came out and did some stunts. There was one guy in I don't know what kind of plane it was, but he would fly really high and then let the plane free fall so it was just falling end over end. Like if you were to throw a toy plane up in the air. It was pretty weird to see!
Next up we saw the USAF Thunderbirds. While we all agreed they aren't quite as good as the Blue Angels, they still put on a pretty great show!
And interestingly, two of the Thunderbird's pilots are women!
The Thunderbirds flew closer to where we were sitting so I was able to get much better pictures.
Have you ever been to an air show?
That is so awesome!! I have never been to one but have always wanted to. It’s definitely on my bucket list!
ReplyDeleteIt was really fun! Hopefully you will get to go to an air show someday! It's one of those events that is fun for everyone!
