Wings over Camarillo Airshow

Not a large airport, but they had a very nice display of pre and WWII war birds along with experimental aircraft. The airshow had lots of flybys and acrobatic stunts.. Didn't realize that I had shot 497 pictures. I guess I gave my Canon 50D a good workout! Used a Tamron 16-300 and Sigma 10-20 3.5. Great place to meet other photographers and exchange information.

There used to be a Super Connie based at Camarillo that did the air show circuit. Was it there? It's a big beautiful bird.

No, Nick, that Super Connie is long gone. I remember seeing it at Camarillo. CAF moves planes around. I think it is at the Palm Springs Air Museum. Beautiful air plane.

The P-39 and Northrup wing are rarely seen! Great to see them in your super photos. Thanks for posting.
