Oh I know. They need to make money after all! I've just become less and less tolerant of being in big crowds of people as I've gotten older.
Now get off my lawn!!
Volunteer to work at the airshow and you will most likely get access to areas "off limits" to the general public. The crowds are still there but you are not crushed in amongst them.

I think you need to click that little "rotate photo 90 degrees" button a couple of times there...

Funny, when I viewed those pics on my iPhone they all had the proper orientation. I guess Safari has a feature where it can auto-detect stuff like that.

Well I got news to share. One of the Photographs I took at EAA Airventure Oshkosh is going to be published in the CAF or Commemorative Air Force's Magazine. If you live here in the States they pretty much own and fly most of the WWII Warbirds that all of us love and enjoy at Air Shows. They asked for permission to use it in their magazine with full credit and all that of course going to me. I've been published before but it was a long time ago and was for another Photograph I had taken at a EAA show in the early 2000s. Kinda nice to be noticed especially with a Organization like the CAF!

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

I always liked the bass player best. Called herself Michael Steele, but her real name was Suzy Thomas. Played bass for the Runaways before their first recording. She wrote and sang a song called Following, which is the best thing I heard from the Bangles.

Some cheesy parts for sure but this video was shown on opening day for MTV,
