This show was a blast. The crowd was much larger than expected and I know it was due to the premier of Art Nalls in the Harrier, which was awesome. The rest of the show flowed fairly well and was enjoyable, but we were all on pins and needles waiting for the Harrier to fly! Everyone did a super job and you couldn't have asked for better weather, except of course the fact that the sun was in your eyes most of the day. Even the military flyby was impressive with the amount of airplanes they had in the air at one time.

Here's a couple pictures.

Good to see everyone out there again, and to meet a some new ASB members as well! The show was more entertaining than I expected, with sharp performances by Sean Carroll in the Yak-9, Kevin Russo in the T-6, Bealeton Flying Circus acts (including a wingwalker), Dr. Smoke, Charlie Schwenker, and of course, Art Nall flying the L-39 early and capping off the day with the Sea Harrier demo.

The videos are still processing, so it may take a few minutes for them to be available, but here's Art Nalls Sea Harrier debut

and the Warbird Fly-by (a.k.a. "Fleet Fly-by - Culpeper Style"). Thanks to BlueAngelsFan for the catchy title.

Hope to see everyone again next season

Cindy

Well, definatly not by best day of shooting photos, but im pleased with them, and havent been thru all yet. Sure there are a few more suprises!

Oh yeah, The Starfighters may be the fastest demo, but this is the fastest lawn service!

HOT dont touch

who is that good looking dude there

last one for tonight......

Fun show. Glad Art had a succesful debut. I shot some HD video that I'll post on my site later this week. Left NJ at 3:30am for the 5 hour drive, so I apologize if I wasn't too sociable. Still hard to focus (mentally). Good to see and meet the people I did. Off to bed...woo hoo, Sat night at 9:45! See you at Rotorfest tomorrow.

Very good little show. Great seeing ASB members Art Nalls, COWBOY, CRoy (see you guys at Georgetown & look forward to seeing the Sea Harrier there), CindyVA, Andy, Airshow4444, Darren & Netti, MikeLynaugh, Rich Kolasa, airshowfan01, Fortress56, Albedo13, and my ride Joe Osciak.

I want to offer my congratulations for Art and his crew on the countless hours spent working to get the Sea Harrier into the air. Awesome job ladies and gentlemen, and see you all at Georgetown.

I agree with everybody else, awesome show and wonderful venue. Here are a few of mine so far (never seen a wing walker before!!)...

Great show. Art's SHAR demo was awesome. Also liked seeing the Percival Provost, but then I do have a thing for ugly british aircraft.

For a small airshow it was awesome. Being able to get up close to the aircraft, before and after the flight demos, is always a nice treat. There were also some fun eventsfor the kids. My girlfriends kids had the time of their life getting helicopter rides via EAA's young eagles program.

And a few more...

Nice pictures, everybody - looks like it was a good time!

I'm looking forward to seeing Art and the Sea Harrier next season!

Good show with perfect October weather and VIP parking . Nice to hang out with Cindy, Jim, Rich and all the other ASB members I met. Only problem was with certain people who kept blocking people from taking pictures as shown here. More pics later tonight after Rotorfest in West Chester.

Work on more later, off to Rotorfest!

I really enjoyed the show! Seeing Art w/the Harrier was fantastic! Loved seeing all the trainers in the air at the same time! The WWII warbirds are my favs & will always be close to my heart. The Bealeton Flying Circus folks again put on a good show. Really enjoyed that wingwalker! Best of all...I enjoyed meeting my fellow ASB'ers! I look forward to seeing some of you at Georgetown.

Hey guys! I guess I was more tired than I thought......I got home and fell asleep LOL. I had a great time. The show was fantastic.....honestly I wasn't sure what to expect with a free show out in the middle of nowhere......and man was I happily surprised. It was a great show. It was non-stop, and it flowed smoothly, and I was happy to see Sean Carroll & Dr. Smoke there, and of course Art Nalls was fantastic....and such a nice guy. He took time at the end of the show to talk to everyone, and sign autographs.....and when I say talk to everyone, I don't just mean ASB members. He sat and signed autographs until around 3:45pm (and the show ended at 2:45 or so). I also thought it was so nice of the show to give free flights to any kids that wanted after the show (ages 8-17). What a great idea to help grow love of aviation in kids! Thank you very much to everyone that put this show together, you did a great job. I also wanted to say it was really great seeing all the ASB members again. It makes going to a show so much better when you can go and hang out with your friends all day long and share your love of what you are all being a part of!

I just finished getting my pics up.......as usual they can all be seen on my site, http://www.mikelynaugh.com/Airshows but here are a few of my favorites! Enjoy!

And here is that fleet fly-over "Culpeper Style"! I gotta give credit to Jim (BlueAngelsFan) for that one too.......great name for it!







Mike

Here are a couple of Sean Carroll & Cowboy









Mike

And Jim, I know you loved the fleet fly-over......but did you notice the Culpeper Raptor? LOL. I was watching the show with Darren, Netti & Andy and I kept seeing a Raptor out of the corner of my eye, and I had to point it out to them..........



Mike

Great pics everyone! I posted some of mine in the photos section.

Marsha

Hey guys........here's the new one for you! I need help with a couple of you guys that I just met yesterday and I can't remember your handles. Let me know and I will update this photo....thanks!



Mike

The Culpeper Star-Exponent has a review of the of the show along with a photo here:

Anthony

Love the photo! Thanks Mike!

Marsha

You're welcome Marsha! It was nice meeting you!

Mike

Mike, loved the Raptor shot, great imagination. The Broncos shirt guy is Joe Osciak. I rode down there with him.

Thanks Jim!

Is the gaping hole in the front row where I was supposed to be?

Yep! I was looking around for you. I saw you running around the hot ramp during the show having some fun though

Mike photoshopped you in, but I erased you

Mike, ScottH was supposed to go, wonder if that is our missing identity?

A couple of mine from Saturday. Joe O.

Well Jim, you know you always got in my pics........................

Wow, really glad the Harrier is in the air now. Did he do any sort of full demo or was this just a test the waters, fly in some straight lines and see how things go?

Would love to see the Harrier at a show......wonder if he will make any Canadian appearences next summer?
