I'm planning on going on Sunday, in hopes of seeing a B-1 and B-2. I'll probably get in some time Saturday evening.

Once I get closer, I'll check my schedule since it likes to change quite a lot.

Weather is not looking good right now for the weekend. If the weather forecast doesn't look like it's going to improve as we get closer, I might cancel the trip to Nellis. I'd hate to make a 10+ hour round-trip drive and pay for a motel for a rained-out show.

It's 945, sky is overcast, it's 50 degrees. I think I dressed a little on the light side. I really hope the sun burns through the cloud layer. Really don't want an overcast show pictures.

Well, if the weather forecast stays as it is now, I'll be there for Sunday. Sorry to hear you can't make it, Sim.

Sorry to hear about the weather, Panther, hopefully it clears up. If you get this in time, and can find how to do it on your camera, try bumping the exposure compensation up by at least 1/3. That might keep the aircraft from being silhouetted as much against the sky, especially if it's cloudy.

Thanks for the tip. Just crappy shooting all together, have some nice shots except they are boring with the dark skies. Too bad the weather forecast is the same the next 2 days.
