Here's a selection from this year's show back in May. What a fantastic deal for those who live in the Ark-La-Tex to have a show of this caliber. And it's all FREE! Link to the full set.

Great shots! My dad flew a F-4 Phantom for years. Your photo does a good job of exemplifying just how large that plane really is.

Amazing! Where was this air show and when will it happen again? Have you ever been to the air show at Barksdale AFB at Shreveport, LA? They put on a pretty good show and have a look of planes on display. Why is it that always have airshows during the hottest part of the year? And all that concrete just seems to make it hotter! Still fun and gives me another excuse for an ice cold beer!

Awesome series. I like the Ho Ho Ho shot and the upside down shot above it the best. Looks like you had a great time!

Guess you have been to the BAFB airshows. I never paid any attention to the name of the show. I used to go every year but haven't been in the past two years because of work. They always put on a great show.

Love the F4, P51, and A10 together.

Is that a Lazer 3 frames below? <edit> Oops... never mind, it's an Edge.

Where was this airshow? Looks like one to go to. <edit> Barksdale? No kidding? They really stepped it up since I was there last... but that's been almost 20 years... ick
