Viva Las Vegas!
Not long back from a 2 week tour of the US, amongst the many places visited was Las Vegas. Las Vegas McCarran Airport offers the photographer a multitude of places to take images from and I've included photos from several locations in this thread. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49034818226_43af...

Re: Zigermeet 2019 - Mollis, Switzerland 16th August
Hi Philip
The F18/Bronco formation was the first thing I saw when I arrived at the airfield on Friday, it happened just after 9am. A couple of flypast then the Bronco landed and the F18 did a solo display. It was nice of him to change airframes when he returned later in the day!

Zigermeet 2019 - Mollis, Switzerland 16th August Updated
I attended the recent Zigermeet at Mollis Airfield in Switzerland for the first time, it certainly won't be the last! Set in a valley in the mountains it's unlike any other airshow I'd been to before, the mountain sides certainly make for an interesting backdrop and it's quite deceptive how much spa...

Maybe I should change the thread title to ‘Lazy Oshkosh’! but yes I spent my time next to the runway.

Love that F16 departure shot and I'm glad you caught the F16 with the Skyraider and Mustang, I was just getting back from the Seaplane base when they were displaying and didn't get any decent photos of them!
