Yes great.
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.
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.
Beautiful inflight captures...very well done.

More B-29 shots from the 2018 Reading air show, all shot with my sigma 150-600 C.
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?
Thanks .Yes there is a show every year. It's around D day . I've been on the grounds a few times but now just tail gate.
Fifi......one of two that are still airworthy. Doc is the other one.
Nice shots.
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
