Here it is.

If they're both back this year I'll try to make sure my shutter speed is slower.

Thank you :) I was using a rented rig (a772/70-400g2) but I also had my regular cam with me. Oshkosh has been good to me...2 Picture of the weeks (AvWeb) and one Picture of the Month (EAA.org) several years apart. I wish I could get a job with an aviation media company...I could use a change of career.

I've been to a lot of air shows but I've yet to see a B-29. Thanks for sharing.


Only two left that are airworthy.

Nice! I used to fly into Reading for the airshow every year back in the 70's when I had my C-182. My favorite was always Bob Hoover, then they stopped having the shows so it's good to hear they're on again.

Perfect prop blur on the last one. Well done. All of them very good.

I was on FIFI at an air show in Fort Wayne, Indiana a number of years ago. A beautiful airplane. Wish I could get a ride. I did ride on a B-17 last year over Richmond, Virginia. The most wonderful thing I have ever done. Is there an airshow in Reading every year?

I flew 750 hours as a flight engineer 21 yrs old in the 98th bomb wing, 343rd sq, out of Yokota Japan, at the end of the Korean war. The B-29 was always very dear to my heart.
I didn't know 2 were still flying, If they come to Santa Maria, Ca area I'll definitely pay for a ride.
Thanks for the memories
Bud
