Killer shot Bill!  Was this up at Fallon?

Close by.  Reno Air Races, 2007.  National Anthem Flyby.  Caught me by too much of a surprise.  I didn't get too good of a shot.  I was set up for props, so had a slow shutter, which lowered the keeper ratio for their flyby.   Kind of like a sneak pass, feels great, but the photos sometimes suffer.

Sweet catch, Dave!  ATARS nose and mission markings.  Nice!

Great catch Dave - and another ATARS bird.  Between you and Bill, I think you've got the Marine AW community covered.  I've only managed to catch the Vikings and the Green Knights.

I found some time today to go through some of my older shots, I cant believe some of the stuff I forgot I had.
