Perfect day for an Air Show! Not too warm, sunny and a slight breeze. Though there were lots of aircraft already at the show, there is still room for more. I took a great number of photographs, still sorting through them but I have posted many on my website gallery to make it a bit easier to view them. Plus it is less labor intensive on this end too. So take a peek at my AirVenture 2008 Pictures.
Couple of highlights of today was the arrival of the Dreamlifter, a modified Boeing 747 used to transport components of the 787 Dreamliner. It is the modern version of the “Guppy”. Another Boeing aircraft of not was the Boeing 40 that was recently restored and is now flying. I have some photos of it, but I will be taking better ones tomorrow.
I’ll admit I am somewhat sunburned, my feet are sore, and my joints are feeling a bit stiff. But I will be back there again tomorrow. My wife accompanied me today and we had a good time, tomorrow I am looking forward to spending part of the day there with my eldest son.
Time now to get my legs up and rested for tomorrow’s AirVenture 2008!
