Critique: NC:

Lancaster TX always have an awesome show. this year was an exception, lots of aircraft did not show up... but seeing MIG23, MIG21 and MI24D and MI2 flyin.... I am a happy man even under the 100 degree heat and humidity.

Got some in panaromic shots due to the cramp setup of the statics

Very nice '24 - one of the baddest attack choppers ever made.

Nice. I wish I had thought of the panarama. My shots in that area look cramped.

Did you see the Kaydet damage it's aileron on an attempted landing? I think he caught a strong crosswind gust.

Beautiful shots! I need to check that place out, I love anything with an engine in it and planes are a weakness of mine. I had the chance to ride in a Polish Mi-2 several years ago. Pretty neat helicopter but that sucker rattled like it was about to fall apart. About four months later the man crashed it outside of Lufkin Texas when on side of the landing gear hit a armodillo hole and broke off. Last I heard it was sitting in his pasture outside of Turner Town, Texas.
