A friend of mine Randy lives in Vegas so not only does he get to shoot Red Flag and just Nellis Traffic but he gets all those Cal air shows. I have to keep telling him to stop rubbing it in. I'll have 4 air shows to hit this year but 2 of them are shooting into the sun and one is Pease again so I won't be going on seeing they're charging $30 to get on base and more to park....

Rhode Island has the Raptor Demo and the Horsemen in the F-86's and seeing it's an old Amphibious Air Navy Base they are hopefully bringing in some of the Navy TAC demo's seeing this is the 100th Anv for the Navy. NAS Brunswick also is on the list.

Can't wait to hit Oceana again this year!

Yeah, as many shows as we get in SoCal, 3/4 of them have you shooting into the sun. Planes of Fame is the heart-breaker for me because it has such a terrific collection of classic aircraft, but is usually hazy and you're shooting into the sun most of the day.

Thanks LB and Jim. As cold as it is during the winter, the snow is a perfect reflector and keeps the underbelly well lit!
