One of the local aircraft museums hosted a "Vintage Aircraft Weekend" at Paine Field here in Everett, with lots of activities and flight demonstrations. The day started cloudy and wet, but cleared up pretty nicely later in the afternoon, in time for the flight demos from several aircraft I'd been wanting to see in flight for some time. Here are a few...

Most excellent!!!
Great detail and perfect color. Tell us the details. What camera? What Priority? Did you finish them off with an additional adjusting program to get the detail and colors.

Very well done.

Thanks, everyone!

AzShooter, I was using a Canon 7D Mk II and 100-400L lens, shooting in manual mode with shutter set to 1/160, aperture f/16. Naturally, some post-processing was done, but mostly just adjusting contrast and saturation a bit...

Photosmoke - patience, Grasshopper! I'll be posting more in a little while! ;)

Nice shots Squirl033. I like #2 the best because of the cloud formation.
