Photos from Aviation Nation 11/12 - 11/13/2011
Here are some photos I took at Aviation Nation 2011 at Nellis AFB. It turned out to be a great show with a couple of firsts for me. Namely, the use of flares during the Close Air Support Mission Demonstration and the presence of a B-2 on static display. (We also had a B-2 flyover which technically meant there were two at the show... hehehe)
Also good to see a C-17 demo again and it was great to see the B-1B burner pass, although more than one pass would have been nice.
With the B-2 being backlit I decided to try an HDR:
