Memphis Fun

Have not had much chance to shoot this year, even with a new body. Decided it was about time to correct it, lol. Went down to Memphis with press credentials to the Memphis Airshow. Was an outstanding weekend and got to see many friends that I had not seen in a while. Started to process the pics tonight and have a couple of favorites ; so far.

Great shots! ; Love the Corsair one! ; One of my favorite planes!

 

I hope not. This year has been rough for sure. Losing 2 friends, Amanda Franklin and Jimmy Leeward, this year to crashes has made the year long.

 

Thanks for the compliments everyone . Got 2 more from Sat.

Call sign Death 11

Very nice, you obviously haven't lost your touch. Yes, a bad year for airshow folks. Don't forget about one of the Horseman pilots who was lost in a T-28.

The Trojan Horseman did lose a good one as well. Jack Mangan was an excellent pilot that many people loved. Sadly, never got the chance to meet him.
With the incidents this year it will be interesting to see if there will be any rule changes.

 

Excellent work Jason! ; I especially like the pan and prop blur on the Corsair
