Mixed symphony in the air today over DM AFB
« on: March 02, 2012, 11:25:32 AM »
The annual heritage flight qualification has started again. I am listening to the sounds of jets mixed with Merlins right now. It's great to be in the RV camp here on base since they fly right overhead.  :airplane:

You may now become jealous, this has been a public service announcement.  :devil :neener: :banana:

Jealousy would be enhanced by photographs of cool things flying over head...

I see it every year, my house seems to be directly under the flight path.

I missed it this year as I was at work. Wasn't there a P-38 one year?

The P-38 was here last year but, not this time.  I think the guys who brought it ou last year, are flying the A-36 in it's place.

It's on all weekend, Jimson.

Ah well, unless they are up before 11:00 am, I may not get a glimpse this time.

This is outside my front door (RV camp at DM) and a shot of what was flying overhead this afternoon. I also include a shot of mi casa, the car and goldwing under the cover are ours too. All I have is a cheap pocket camera so nothing worthwhile for flying pix. But you can still be jealous.  :devil
The last is a stang, a jug, a F4 and an A10.
