Only my second post on this hallowed forum. Comments and suggestions very welcome.
The light on the saturday was not great, lot of shooting towards the sun. The light at the end of the day when the F22 went up was terrible, facing towards a setting sun (the F22 was delayed a good while due as I understand to commercial traffic at San Antonio international).
F18 with shockwave early in the morning
F18 returned for a fast pass and turned at show centre for an underneath shock wave photo opportunity
C17 and C47 Cargo heritage Flight-can appreciate the size differnce
Close up of the C17 and C47 flight, the angle diminishs the space between-but looks very small.
C17 reversing after landing
B17 Thunder Bird
B25 Doolittle Raider
The Collings Foundation F4 Phantom
F4 Phantom with A4 Skyhawk behind both of the Collings Foundation and taxing after their displays
really nice Mig17
The home training T6 Texan II
T6 Texan Ii taxing after its display
Thanks for viewing and here's hoping for a sunny 2010.
Forgot to add 2-
A10 Davis Monthan display team
F22 Raptor-rather heavily edited because of the poor light but very rarely get to even see one.
Thanks for the kind responses and as requested 4 pics of the Collings Foundation A4 Skyhawk. The flying ones were taken the week before at Wings over Houston (the light was better) and the landing/taxing shots at Randolph. Hope you enjoy.

An interesting selection - the Dak/Globemaster shots really make you think.

Some very good shots there. The C17 and C47 shots are particually interesting for the comparison of old and new.
Have you any more of that superb looking Skyhawk from the Collins foundation?....what a beut!

I was really amazed by the size difference between the C-17 and the C-47.
