Wow. Very cool pics. I'll have some new desktop material now.

I used to report your post show results to the WG CC as well as doing your SORTS reports:xpl: while I was at the 57th.

Cool opportunity for you Mx guys....better gig than the sandbox I suppose

These were taken in England at the Waddington show. This had to be the 2nd largest show of our trip. A lot of cool stuff to see and do.

I had never seen or heard of this bomber before, but it is quite amazing. The Vulcan from 1956,

I didn't get a chance to capture the amazing show that this chopper put on, but it was by far the most impressive display that I have seen.
This is someones video from the show. I really liked how they did the rolling land around 4:00 mark.

As a USAF veteran, I would have been happy with 100 pictures of the jets, but the abundance of side-bar photos is outstanding. Thanks for serving and thanks for sharing.

Some shots that I took while roaming the streets in Lincoln England, the town where we stayed during the show. They had a cool old castle and a huge cathederal.

The backside of the court house inside the castle walls.

The front side.

Looking up at the high tower of the castle.

Standing at the top of the high tower looking at the cathederal.

Looking past the top edges of the castle wall at the cathederal. It reminds me of to faces looking at the cathederal.

Inside the castle was a prison and the prison had a chapel. The inmates were forced into the chapel daily for long periods of time. They had to wear masks and with the design of the pews they were forced to only to be able to look forward at their bible or the preacher. This idea was used thinking that it would reform the prisoners.

It was quite creepy to see in person as I was standing at the top where the preacher would be.

The Cathederal
