Just got back from the airshow

[Shawnee123]

The Thunderbirds were in Dayton this year. We trade back and forth with the Blue Angels and the T-birds. I didn't see any of it though.

I agree monnie. I love to see and hear the jets. My dad used to own a lake closer to the Air show, and often the planes did their turnarounds right over us. We'd cook out, swim, fish, and hang out watching the planes.

One year, my whole family, including grandma and aunts and uncles, were down at that lake. Out of nowhere a Blue Angel flew right over us, came from behind us. It was going so fast we didn't hear it before we saw it, but it was so close we almost felt like we could touch it. My entire family was cheering and yelling, and a lot of us got a bit choked up, it was just so cool. Even my elderly grandma was astounded. I will never forget that moment...so thrilling.

monster, have you ever been to the Air Force Museum in Dayton? I think you'd love it, if you love the planes.
