Airshow Pics
« on: February 20, 2010, 07:26:12 AM »
Hello folks,

I just wanted to post a link to some pics i took this year at the 2009 Reading PA MAAM airshows WWII weekend.  It was a great time and if you have a chance, try to check it out this year. They have a ton of planes, and WWII displays.
FYI the handsome young man in the ball cap is my son Jay. ( yes he gets his looks from his mom   :D  ) It was a blast watching his little 9yrold eyes grow to the size of dinner plates and every twist and turn on the tarmac.

Enjoy

<S>

Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

When the game is over, the Kings and Pawns all go into the same box.

Interesting, I thought the Ju-87 was bigger than that.

Your eyes dont decieve you, the JU 87 is bigger. IFRC this one is a replica that is 75% the size of the original.
