I took a ride on Yankee Lady at the WWII Weekend airshow in Reading this past weekend. What a blast. These pictures do not do it justice. I shot some 1080p of the trip as well, but I still don't know how to convert it from the native .mts without a huge loss in quality.
Being on a plane like the one my father flew over Germany certainly made me appreciate what he did even more. We only went to 2 grand; I can't imagine the environment at 20,000 feet. All shots taken with the Nikkor 12-24f/4G.
