    Oceana Airshow 2010

    Here are some photos from the Oceana airshow this past weekend:

    The Horsemen left their P-51 Mustangs at home and brought two Bearcats and a Corsair. They really flew a great demo:





    It was nice to see a 4 ship heritage flight - becoming a rarity these days:



    The Fighting Omars came out to play in the Airpower demo:



    The new paint scheme for the Felix 100 CAG jet :



    The Navy Legacy flight (with a different Corsair):



    The E-2C Hawkeye:


    The Viper West demo was brilliant, Booster sure tore up the sky:


    Vapor generators:




    Thanks for looking...

    Isaac

    WOW!!!
    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    Amazing shots! Looks like you definitely took advantage of a non-backlit airshow.

    Brilliant pictures, particularly liked the US Navy CAG 'Felix' FA/18.

    Thanks for sharing your images they are exceptional.

    Cheers Hifyer

    That's one of the many things I love about the Oceana show - great light until about 2PM.

    Great shots Isaac !!
    It was good seeing you at Oceana and I'm really glad you made it down there on Sunday,
    so that you could finally see Opi and Booster's WILD Viper West Demo in person !!!

    Thanks Moose.

    Hey Chris, It was great hanging with you on Sunday. Man, you weren't kidding about Booster and his demo - absolutely outstanding - way better than Viper East. I am really glad I made it out there, and next year I will do the full three days again. From some of the photos I've seen on asb, the Friday night show looked pretty cool.

    Thanks

    Did something crazy the past weekend: drove 7+ hours Friday night to Oceana, watched the Saturday show, stayed at a hotel for the night, then drove 8+ hours back to Jersey. I have to say it was worthwhile for the long driving and lost sleep to see the show at NAS Oceana.

    Here are some of my pictures, not spectacular, but I still would like to share.
