I've been going to Mugu my whole life, and this was the first time I hadn't gone, and turns out to be one of the best shows. <bleep>
Wow! Very cool pictures Eric. <tcat> <camera>

Nice.
I don't think you got enough vapor in that last shot... :P
After looking at my own and other photos, it looks like the firecat pilot was lucky not to crash. Does anyone else think he was flying to low ???

Naw, same altitude as the 05 show.
From 05.
I take that back after closer examination. :o
Still paranoid after the Reno airraces this year :'(
05 looked good ;)
Yeah but the weather man, uuugh. The last few years up to 07 was just crap.
I was at Edwards. Missed the bad weather ;)

I haven't been to an Edwards show in a long time.
Hope is not bad for 2008. :o
Waiting to post both dates for Edwards and Pt. Mugu if they have them ::) So far, it looks like it will be NO for both :'(
