Cape Cod Airshow 8/25 (pics!)

I attended the Cape Cod Airshow this past Saturday. The weather was funky. Low clouds early - scubbing a few acts, then gradual clearing so at times there was an unrestricted ceiling.

However, the Thunderbirds tried their act 3 times and just didn't have sufficient visibility and scrubbed - not even the flat show.

Even so, I had a great time

Here are some highlights:

It was a good day for condensation - if you are into that sort of thing ...

A high speed pass by the F-16

The weather for the resident F-15s was good enough only for ILS passes - but they were at least able to form up

I loved the C-17 demo

Too sunny for the Corsair pilot while he waited his turn

What is an airshow without a jet truck these days

Anyway, thanks for looking - I just wanted to share the experience with some fellow enthusiasts
