Awesome shots. How cool is that you get to set in the yard for the show!!!!


Erv, it is quite a show with many different types of planes. A bonus this year is 2 night shows.

I love watching (and photographing) the Blue Angels and the USAF Thunderbirds, though I must confess a preference for the Angels, being a former Marine. The most amazing thing that I have heard about the Blue Angels is that the pilots do NOT wear G-suits. They fly so close to each other that the inflation/deflation of the suit, although slight, would cause enough movement of the pilots extremities that they would crash into each other. This is especially impressive considering that they are pulling upwards of 9 Gs during some maneuvers.

Wow, great information. The Blue Angels and Thunderbirds alternate years at Sun 'n Fun. Always fun to see either but agree with you about the Blue Angels!

The Blue Angels are performing at the 2017 Sun 'n Fun International Airshow in Lakeland, FL this weekend. I live about a mile from the airport so am lucky to be able to sit in my yard and watch the show. Plus the Blue Angels fly right over my house. Hope you enjoy a few of the shots from Friday's performance.


Nice set.

Nice. Saw them recently at the Jacksonville NAS show. The pilots and crew stayed at the hotel next to us. Just went to the TICO airshow in Titusville, Thunderbirds where there.
