2008 Air Show

Here are some photos from last month's Air Show at Andrews Air Force base just south of Washington, D.C. (in Maryland). The air show itself was very loud, and the boys took note.


But they had a great time going on board a helicopter, a CH-53E, I believe.


They especially liked seeing "Andrew Camden's airplane", a U.S. Navy P-3 Orion. Andy was disappointed to learn that Andrew Camden wasn't there.


We spent most of the airshow at the picnic pavilion where Tom's friend from ONI, Tim Nelick, was running a great BBQ operation. The pavilion was right at the end of the runway, so the Blue Angels flew immediately overhead. We had a great view, and a great day.
