Very nice! I will get some posted once I get through all of them. Might take a while! :D

Here's one of many I took. I rather enjoyed the Vietnam-era Warbirds show...that was something different for a change.

Also from my iPhone. I haven't downloaded the Canon yet.

What model Spitfire is that? I am guessing XV but that is just a guess.

Really nice pics everyone.

Zack, the b&w of the skyraiders is outstanding! That's a pic in search of a blow-up and frame.

I'd guess it's a Mk 21 or 24 given the bubble canopy and 5-blade prop. There are so few that I'm sure Google could tell.

EDIT: I was wrong, it's Rudy Frasca's Spitfire Mk XVIII E.

Aha! A friend of mine and I were aging over it last week. I thought it was a XXII, he thought a XV. Since he is more up on British things I deferred to him. Thanks.

Rudy Frasca's Spitfire is a MK XVIII.

Surely more of you took pictures than just those of us who've posted so far?!? Let's see 'em! :cool:

Have you ever noticed that your camera kind of purrs whenever you take photos of a Spitfire

And Zack, I enjoyed seeing you, too briefly and hearing Dick Cole talk. Thanks for cluing me in on that. When it comes to real warbird guys, out of all the thousands who were there that week, I think he'd be no. 1.
