A Day In The Sun
Yesterday Ken and I spent some quality time outside. We
went downtown and watched from a bridge-The Kansas
City Aviation and Airshow. We joined many families
and couples who came to see the show. I decided that we
would take our lunch so, I packed the insulated picnic bag
and we stopped for sandwiches, chips and sodas. Mr. Ken
drove us downtown and we parked down the hill from the
bridge then made our way up to the bridge and picked a
place to sit and have our picnic while watching the planes.
There were aerobatics-flying straight up.
and straight down.
This plane carried the parachuters.
This picture shows four of the six aircraft civilian
formation aerobatic team. They did formation stunts
sometimes four planes and sometimes all six.
Some of the contrails from the aerobatic team. We also heard
before we saw the US Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon. It flew
over soooo fast that a picture was IMPOSSIBLE!
What a fun time we had sitting in the sun, having a picnic and
watching a lot of talented pilots.

What a beautiful day for an airshow/picnic. Your pictures a wonderful. I can imagine it is quite difficult shooting the show. Kinda like getting a good shot of fireworks so I say, BRAVO! Have a super great day at school and God bless.

I have never been to an air show! We have one pretty close to us but when they report on it the crowds are SOOOOO huge that I can't imagine even finding a parking space. I wish we could find a smaller one and try it out. Thanks for the pictures:)
