'Nicely shot! Thanks for posting these, SK. I consider war to be one of the most idiotic things humanity does but I am in awe of the aircraft designs that come out of it.

Bluemax - thanks, there are some pretty amazing aircraft out there... Sad that I missed the B-2 fly over that was on Saturday, and a few others that were Saturday only, but my son had a blast none the less

Very cool! Did one of the planes crash? (couldn't help but notice that huge fireball)

I walked into the VA Beach air show just as they set off a blast wall like that. I could feel the heat from quite a ways away. Awesome Thunderbirds photos! Their skill level never ceases to amaze me.
