Watchlords

Here's a few shots from the Oregon International airshow on Saturday. The theme this year was She Flies, so all the performers were women. As such, there were no large demonstration teams on hand. FYI, around 7% of the licensed pilots in the US are women. That percentage is even lower in the rest of the world. The 700,000 certificated pilots in the US account for more than a third of the worlds total. There is another airshow in August featuring the Thunderbirds, Codguy and I are planning to attend. The weather Saturday was fairly cloudy but it worked out pretty well considering that scheduling an airshow in Oregon in May is a crapshoot.

An old school Boeing Stearman biplane.

A much newer school Boeing C17 Globemaster.

Aerobatic Extra 300.

F15C from the 142nd Wing, Oregon Air National Guard.

Navy F18, not sure which version.

Air Force F35A.

This shows version of the Heritage flight. USAF F16 Viper and F35A.

Fucking-A Mark, those pics are awesome as usual.
Looks like a decent Hillsboro day for a show.


------> and if it wern't for my total fear of flying, I'd might actually enjoy them even more.

Thanks for your time to take & share!

Great photos Mark A1!

Nice photos Mark. Cod appears to be channeling daycoo and the faux aviator.

Nice pics - always enjoy these - the jets and the pilots who fly them are awe inspiring.

Why, these airplane pics make my dick hard!!

Navy F18, not sure which version.

If it had roundish intake openings, it is an earlier (training) model.
If the two intakes were rectangular, it is of the Super Hornet persuasion which I assume it is.
