Thanks guys! :)
Normally I only look at the straight-on belly shot on this pass but I really liked the angle of this one.
Always clear Jim 8)
One of mine from March AirFest 08.
Pt Mugu
Not fair Damon... Pt Mugu was THE Raptor show to see. I was there... but I was past Ventura when I realized I didn't have my camera. >:( <laughing>

Nice!
Here's a few from Miramar last year........gonna miss this in '09 for sure.
Great shots guys! <rocker>
Cool shots Brian <thumbsup>
How about a Raptor with a mohawk down its back, and one with just a little heat blur.
One from the last Point Mugu Airshow, I swear there is a Raptor in there.
Nice, that last shot is crazy looking... :o cool shot though. 8)
Great shots, guys, hands down some of the best I've ever seen on this board. I pity poor Josh in trying to decide next week's pic of the week!

It was a killer show ;D
My shots from vapor fest are here: http://www.apsocal.com/index.php/topic,143.0.html
Cool shots looks like the ones I got at Sioux Falls except for the vapor. None of the jets at Sioux Falls produced any vapor.
Is it hot out there or what? <flame>
;)
This one obviously is not 300mm friendly... but I liked this shot anyway.
Max shares the spotlight with 200 people that have no clue. ;)
Cool shots Nate. 8)
Thanks 'nando! ;D
The incredibly dead infield doesn't help them much... oh well... SoCal. ::)
Very cool shot, Nate! Here's one I shot during practice............
Can you say "FOD"??
Ahhh yes, the airborne FOD from March. ;D I didn't get a nice shot of it like you did, but I did catch the balloons in one of my shots.
March 2008
Nice Glen
WoW! Clean shot, Glen. ;)

Yeah 2008. Seems like it was forever ago.
I know... March is supposed to have another show in 2010. Finally. Hopefully we don't get ripped off like we did this year for the Pt Mugu show. :(

I probably shouldn't even think this, but ya know what will probably happen, is that Mugu will come back in 2010, and they'll both be on the same weekend!
Here is a couple of my Miramar 08' Raptor photos, man-o-man i'm going miss this bird at this year's show :-\

Thanks, I just remember at the Friday show at Miramar last year there was so much vapor in the air. The one shot where he is fully engulfed was his slow pass from behind the crowd. I kept wondering how he could get so much vapor going that slow...thrust vectoring...
I like this one...

I've been hearing for a while now, the raptor is back in business for demo shows, so I guess only time will tell. Keep the fingers crossed.
