Flew the Extra in Arizona... It was unbelievable! There are simply no manouvers this plane is incapable of performing without restriction. Imagine a G suit and open skies with a plane that can outpull a Fighting Falcon up to 10 Gs!!! 
Thank you xt2! I'm happy to watch, not up throwing cookies in the cockpit ...

Paul, you and your gear make an outstanding team, and the images prove it; only thing missing is the roar of the engines. Thank you!! John
Thank you JBruce! Stuart had a few paid options for seating. I took the one with unlimited adult beverages and catered food that proved a great choice.

Thank you Swamp-Cork, nimbushopper, William! Stuart had a night show as well, but it was rained-out. That and a helicopter ride where the "misses" from this trip. Glad you enjoyed the Sunday results.

Great photos and the history information is terrific. Appreciate the information about the airshow and will be placing it on my bucket list. Is this show usually scheduled for the first weekend in November? Mahalo for sharing.

From a photographers viewpoint and avid air show enthusiast ... quite stunning photography. From a pilot's perspective ... Yeahhhhhhhhh!!!
Here's a fly-by, 'on-the-deck' shot of Jon Melby in his Pitts S-2B taken at the EEA Copperstate Fly-in. Melby is a super guy, both in the cockpit and in person.

The owner/pilot of this Beechcraft D18 let me take a photograph of her polishing her gorgeous aircraft. As a matter of fact, the pilot herself is quite gorgeous too ... which is really what caught my eye in the first place, and why I couldn't resist taking the shot.

Thank you JoAnneK01! This was my first time to the Stuart Air Show, but I believe from the literature, it's always in early November. Their website is already updated with details for the Nov 2019 event.

Thank you Robert, John, Dean, bnewmk, TonyBot, Blair, billbarcus! The Stuart show is the "end of the season" in North America, so there was some "goodbyes" on Sunday for pilots retiring or moving onto other assignments making the vibe different from other shows. Glad you enjoyed these images.
