These are my favorite pictures from the
1999
Barnes Air Show in Westfield. Despite the early haze each
day, and the fact that the Friday practice was rained
out, this show had the best weather of any of the major
99 New England air shows. Unfortunately, the haze did
prevent me from getting any good aerial shots of demos
done early in the day. |

The picture on the left is of the
B-1 as it arrived Friday afternoon. The other shot is of the B-1 as it came out
from behind some trees prior to it's demo. |
The P-51 is considered by many to
be the premier World War 2 fighter plane. |

The Heritage Flight is my favorite
part of an air show. |

An F-16 from the An F-16 from the
Vermont ANG Green Mountain Boys, Tornado, and RCAF
Tutor arrive at Westfield. I can't stress enough how
great a location I had for taking pictures at the Friday
fly-in. Everything landed right in front of me, and then
passed by even closer on the way to be parked as static
displays. |

I love this shot of the 5 and 6 in
reverse formation. |
This isn't a great shot of the
diamond formation, but I especially like the effect of
the clouds in the background. |
The classic Thunderbird diamond
formation. |
A view of the the bottom of the
