Great shot! I love airshows. I just took my son to the one at Langley AFB back in May and we are going to the one at NAS Oceana in September. Always a good time!

This was the exact show where I took this picture!! It was a great time, but it was very hot and my daughter made us leave before the blue angels went up. Great show, I really enjoyed it!

Oh cool! The Air Force Thunderbirds were at Langley but the Blue Angels are going to be at Oceana so you can see them in September. Here's a pic I took of the Thunderbirds.

I live next to an AFB and see F35’s daily right over my house. I always have to remind myself that they aren’t just a daily nuisance to people and something cool to see.

wow thats a really cool shot! Must be crazy to see one of those things in person

[–] Lanusensei@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

That is so cool! Did they show it doing vertical lift off/landing?

For a second there I thought you were talking about Fedora 35...

This has some serious hypohystericalhistory thumbnail energy to it.

Excellent in its simplicity.

I love these air shows! I recently caught one in Cocoa Beach, Florida and it was so cool watching all the planes fly over the ocean. It was a great event

Hillsboro Air Show?

Super cool. Almost doesn't look real!
