I can't compare to the excellent photos posted already, but I thought I might still post a few of mine, as a humble offering to this thread. Unfortunately I must have just missed 'Twilight Tear' - was really looking forward to seeing that one.

Got home safe this afternoon. I'll be flossing grit out of my teeth and scrubbing mud off of my car for a week. All in all, a successful Airventure.

I can't hardly believe they flew that thing over a thousand miles, and are flying it back!. It looks like a real handfull in the air.

Nice pics everyone, thanks for sharing. Looking at the pics I can't help but think that it would be a real treat to see Beasley's and Frasca's Spitfires together.

I was shooting it when my camera broke. I'll have to see how they look but they probably have my jamming shutter obstructing part of them.

They're really poor hammers, cameras, aren't they? :shock:

Seriously though, sorry to hear that Al. I wonder how many cameras give up the ghost at Osh? One of mine burnt out on my second visit.
