Spirit of Flight = The Best Part 1 (Read 243 times)

Hello everyone!  As you might know, I went to the Spirit of Flight Airshow at the Lone Star Flight Museum last Saturday.  It was a GREAT show!  Nice weather, lots of great flying, and a few 'surprises' such as a B-52 flyby and B-2 flyby! 

Unfortunately, my good camera DIED halfway through!!!!  And I forgot the extra battery Cry  So there are going to be two posts of my pics of the best pics (pun intended Wink ) from the good camera.  My standards are high, there are 9 pictures to be posted out of 450.  If anyone wants to see more of certain planes, just ask and I might have more.  Also if you want a full size picture send me a PM or something and I will get the full size to you as soon as I can Wink

Enjoy!!

I'll post some of N25673 but don't get your hopes up.  She's in the hangar.  I asked and found out that its on loan from Continental and for some reason the museum doesn't have permission to fly it.

In case you were wondering, this is what that B-25 used to look like.  I personal prefer the old colors over the Doolittle Raiders scheme on it now.
