Quonset Pt./National Guard Air Show

[Rusty]

All of these pictures were taken with my eric's Cannon Rebel xt.

Here are some of the planes and helicopters they had on display. Sorry planes are my thing so i don't really know the names of any of them.

Here are some pics of the Jet truck they had. The truck was really cool and was scheduled to race one of the smaller planes but first it didnt because the plane's fuel cap or something came loose and then they couldn't find the keys to the truck. But just watching the truck take a few practice runs down the runway was really cool. As you can tell by the kid in the first photo it was really loud.

Here are some more pics of the planes doing some stunts and demonstrations. The harrier jet took off practically vertically.







They had a mock battle with Black Hawks, supply planes and explosions.

The British Red Arrows where there. They were by far the best act of the day.

The Shockwave is really cool. Often, they have it race one of the old MIGS, like the Redbull plane (not to spoil it, but the MIG isn't really racing )

And the Red Arrows definitely kick ass. The crossover break they do with all planes is such a crazy illusion.
