Guess who was in town this weekend?

We live in the flight path of the airport so we go a front row seat. The famous Blue Angles were in town and it was a great show.

Wow great shots! When I was a kid I lived in Dayton Oh. Big airshow there every year. The Blue Angles and the Thunderbirds would alternate coming every year. I had so much fun!

Nice shots Rare T/A. Cool to see

Hope you don't mind but I did a few quick edits to bring out the planes.

Thank for lighting them up!  We live on the south side of town and the airport is way up north but when they circled around they came over our place just above the trees. It was a awesome display for the two days they practiced and the two days of the show.
