Hi everyone. :) I just love airplanes,so here's a thread for the pix I've taken.

These first ones are from an Airshow at Peterson AFB in Colorado Springs about 6 months ago for the 50th Anniversary of NORAD. Guess which idiot didn't bring spare batteries? :blush: So I only got a couple.

This is a CF-18A of the Canadian Armed Forces,marked in the beautiful tail art "Village de Quebec" for the 2008 Demo Team Season. I got to chat with a female-type Canadian Forces Jet Mechanic too! :biggrin2:

A C-130H of the Colorado Air Force Reserve. This plane is configured to fight forest fires by dropping slurry or water,and the unit stays very busy all over the West every Summer.

Thanks Nora! :) I was surprised.........I literally couldn't see what I was shooting on my little digital because of the glare,and then my batteries died-aarg! :lmao:

But I was pleased. It was a good learning experience.

We always take the kids to airshows, up until recently my son was determined to join the RAAF now at almost 15 he has changed his mind and doesn't know what to do (nor does he have the grades to do much).

That's too bad. The RAAF are a bunch of real professionals. Is he qualified to fly,physically I mean?
