Well yesterday, I got to go to my first air show.  To be more precise, the Wings Over Pittsburgh air show.  Even at 8:30 getting into the show took a long time.  However after sitting in about a 30-45 minutes of traffic, I got into the show.  Great thing about the air show is that parking is free and admission was free.  What’s not to love about free entertainment?

I had to go through more security than I thought.  First, I had to have my camera bag checked.  This wasn’t some bag checks at some other places, they literally opened up all compartments and inspected everything.  I give them credit for the thorough checking.  After having my bag checked, I had to get wanded.   I guess with military air craft and families being there, they couldn’t take any chances.

 After getting in, there were may aircraft to see (click for larger versions):
Plenty of fighter jets on display.

Then my favorite plane of all time……The B-52H bomber:

Flying high in demonstrations was the A10 Warthog:

If you enjoyed these few previews, please head on over to the Wings Over Pittsburgh image gallery to view some more.  After viewing them, please come back here and let me know what you think.

Enjoy!
