Air Show

On July 3rd, Cavanaugh, the air museum that's hanger is next door to Sam's work, puts on an air show at the Airport. I went with Sam to work and hung out in the break room and read till work was over


the planes that are in the hanger


Yes, sometimes they park cars in the hanger



the inside of the owners to the Rangers jet! :)



Sam with the plane he worked on






filling out his time card


they started pulling the planes out for the show








the air show started with parachuting out of a DC3

one guy had a smoke trail


this guy had a huge flag hanging from him :)









we heard that the flag weighed about 80 lbs




war birds doing aerobatics with smoke trails






they closed the tower down, so they set up their own 'ATC'



flying up-side-down! :)
















we sat with one of Sam's co-worker and his wife and children :)


Levi and Lucas



this little guy, Wyatt, was born the day before our wedding! :) He didn't appreciate the loud noises...but when his Daddy put the earphones on him, he eventually fell asleep! :)


























P-51 Mustang - this is Sam's favorite war bird! :)



we had pretty good seats!!! 
Sam, Lisa, Levi and Griffin


Joe(another co-worker) playing catch with his son



the guy that drives the fuel truck chatting with Bill, Sam's boss

flying in formation














they had two hot air balloons, but it was too windy, so they didn't go up



7 war birds in formation










flaring to land









An ultralight with fireworks! :)








Then a plane with more fireworks




Then there was a 30 min firework show off the end of the runway!





























Sam with the P-51 Mustang :)


Traffic was crazy getting out of the airport, so we just sat in the bed of the truck and chatted with Bill till it cleared slightly....at about 11:30...but it was totally worth it!!! :D
