With Thunder over Michigan shut down again this year I figured I'd try something new. I've been wanting to go to this for a few years, decided to give it a shot for $20 pre-sale. Supposedly the cars they bring to park amongst the airplanes in are a cut above, Auburns, Duesenbergs, Cords, etc. I'm looking forward to seeing the 'new' Ford Tri-Motor the YAF just picked up. They'll be selling tickets for 25 minute flights, it's a new item on my bucket list.

I plan to limit my M-4/3 lenses to the 8-18 and 12-60, doubt I'll need anything longer. I plan to take some period correct cameras too, my Argus Argoflex E TLR, maybe one of my A models, maybe my pre-war C3. Should be fun and its lasts about 5 hours so it shouldn't be rushed.

Here's some shots from a recent visit to the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum. They just got an F/A-18C Hornet, Blue Angel no. 4 installed.

I go there enough times that I try not to repeat earlier shots. I'll post a few photos, but the Flickr album shows some before and after shots when I reprocessed some high ISO shots using DeNoise AI. I was pretty impressed with the noise reduction without losing details with DeNoise. This might interest you.

Here's the album. https://www.flickr.com/gp/92624968@N02/7K312g

Mitsubishi A6M5 in previously flyable condition. Notice the oil drip pans under her.

Act of m43 heresy.

Heavy crop (From the full-frame insert.) made from a Nikon Z7 II since the guys were buzzing around overhead in circles looking for bad guys. I can see the right-seat observer looking at me too.

The top was taken from the backyard. Bottom is taking off from Phoenix Mesa Gateway airport. I think they were working the Tussock Fire north of Phoenix, AZ.
