 We don't get to see many air shows around here so this one was a treat. Four aerobatic wizards did some crazy stunts in front of only a handful of people left on the airfield... it was like a private performance. I saw these local kids on a hay stack...their haircuts were interesting :).

Meanwhile the tragic event in Reno happened... so, among the many photos this one was the most inspiring and seemed like a proper dedication to all the veteran pilots and the dream of flying they pass on to their grandchildren.

Also inspired by the aerobatic ace, Svilen Georgiev from Bulgaria.

I think this is one that would have fared better if the story could have been read at the same time as voting. Quite poignant!

Definitely looks like it is out of an old family album. My brothers had haircuts like that. :)
