Knew you were holding out, Will. Worth the wait!

I just wish we could send you some of this &@#* rain.

Holding out? I haven't had time till this past weekend to process anything more. I was busy being both pit crew and driver for a car at the Monterey Historics. I've been madly thrashing to get that car going since I got back from Oshkosh. (It hadn't been on track in 25+ years. I got it out for a test day, and it had issues. Got most of those solved before Monterey, however still had issues at Monterey.) Now I'm doing my best to get through Oshkosh stuff before I leave for Reno next week. (its going to take a dedicated effort to get through 2500 pics before then.)

Yeah, the west coast could use some rain. Heck, I'll take 1 good thunderstorm over Reno late next week so I can shoot some more epic lighting shots from the pits.

Didn’t mean to suggest that you were wasting time - I know yours take a lot longer to set up, sort, and process than mine. I was just saying that I knew you still had good ones still in the queue.

Looking forward to your Reno presentation.

Great photos blackbird!

Isn’t the last T-28, pictured with large group of Trojans, the one that recently crashed in Blaine, MN?

I got the newest issue of Sport Aviation in the mail today. To my surprise I found 4 of my shots from Oshkosh in it. Considering the company I was in, I'm both honored and thrilled to be seen as an equal to them.

I got a few more done.

and one from the sea plane base that I didn't feel was worth uploading (go figure)
