First day of the show

My friend, Greg, arrived on this Southwest 737 as an ambassador for their 225 program, which he is participating in. Destination 225 is essentially a Southwest pipeline for pilots.

A U2 arrived.

The obligatory biplane act part of the airshow.

F-22 flyby.

Heritage flight with an F-22 and a pair of P-51s.

My friend, Jim, and his son, Ben were much better equipped to catch these flybys than my cell phone camera.
