Default Air show pics from Huntington Beach, CA. 9/30/17

Lynn, Holly and I took a quick trip to SoCal, to see the Huntington Beach Air Show which included the RCAF Snowbirds, the US Army Special Operations Command Parachute Demonstration Team-The Black Daggers, F16 Viper Demo, F35 Demo Lightning II demo, Raising Cane's L39 Albatross jet demo, FedEx 757 flyby and of course the US Navy Blue Angels!

Here's the The Black Daggers, Raising Cane's L39 Albatross and the RCAF Snowbird pics! More later!

In this group of photos, there are the F16 Viper pics, F35 Demo Lightning II pics, The combo pics of New and Old (P51 Mustang, F16 and F35) and the FedEx 757 flyby!

Notice that due to the proximity to the ocean and moisture that the pressure is lower on top of the wings, and more so when the fighter is pulling Gs. A pressure drop is accompanied by a temperature drop. If that temperature drop reduces the temperature of the air to below the dewpoint, the moisture in the air will condensate and the "clouds" will appear around the aircraft

And here are the US Navy Blue Angels pictures. They were so close to the ground...that when the went "smoke on"-the residual smoke stayed in the air and made it "smoggy" in the area.

Still...it was awesome-and worth the trip! Enjoy the last of the pics! I took a bunch more but will only post a few. I love the bird getting chased by the two right side up and 2 inverted Blue Angels...LOL
