air show!!

Ok, here are pics from the airshow that me and my GF atended on August 19th. It was at Volk Field in Wisconsin, about a three hour drive from the cities here. It was WELL worth the trip just for the stealth fighter alone. anyways, here are the pics:F18 Hornet:

F16 Falcon:

C130 Hercules (from Minneapolis National. Guard):

KC135 Tanker... the big boom on the back swings down and re-fuels aircraft in flight:


T38 Talon?... trainer aircraft:

A10 Warthog / Tankbuster... This thing has a large gatling gun on the front that fires bullets bigger then coke bottles. They rip apart tanks in a matter of seconds as you can see in the other pics:




UH60 Blackhawk:

CH47 Chinook:

CH47 inside:

F-117a Nighthawk / Stealth Fighter... There were two of these here. One took off as we got there and did a couple flybys and then left to do flybys at some other airshows and returned and landed three hours later:

Humvee... I am getting one of these eventually (minus the troop carrier cargo top):
