I feel like I got to do one of these by the end of the year when I arrive back from Morocco of course! My photography improved and it would be cool to visualise it in one topic.

Though i’m not an airshow fan myself, i still like 2nd photo!

Wowzers, those thunderbirds are gorgeous.
Thxfully the pilot that went down a couple wks back is safe.
