Good morning from VA Beach!

Check this out guys and gals:

That's a combination of two pictures off of a one use camera to get the C5-A Galaxy in frame so if it looks a tad off, sorry *g* Taken at this past weekend's Nepture Air Show at NAS Oceana.

The kids had a great time, we got to go up inside the Galaxy, a very impressive plane. The weather was great. Only bad part was the B2 Spirit bomber only got one pass so I didn't really get any good pictures of it other than this one:

Folks I can't express how impressive this plane is. Damn thing flies over at roughly 1000ft or so with barely a sound. Really, I mean I've heard louder lawnmowers than this plane.

Have a great day everyone!

Great Pics! Saw the B2 on the ground here at O'hara a few years back, on Armed Forces day. Impressive, just on the ground. BTW: it was roped off about 25 ft feet, with armed guards about every 10 ft. Also LARGE warning signs saying that the guards were authorized to used deadly force.

Those pictures are wonderful, Severa. I am in awe that such big things can ever get off the ground, let alone fly. Thank you for sharing them.

Hi JJ and Robbie.
