Now that is one OUTSTANDING addition to the lineup! A rare MiG on the North American air show circuit for sure. Thanks Michael, and Merry Christmas to all.

Mind sharing why you weren't blown away by the Breitling team? I know nothing about them so any info is welcomed. Thanks!

Saw the Brietling team perform at the Reno Air Races, I thought they put on a nice smooth show, somewhat like watching the Canadian Snowbirds.

Awesome, going to be some new Warbirds for me to shoot! I am mostly a Texas Airshow person, first year to travel, so this makes me excited!

And sorry I should have said about the Breitling Team, I took lots of photos last year at WOH. So I had my fill. They are a good team just I know their whole routine.
