There were several planes that just seemed exceptionally photogenic today.
I have a series of shots for these plane, disproportionate to the total number of planes that flew this morning.
Two models were flown for the first time at HMF, a Pitts and the EXTRA-300.
I'll start off this coverage with a YAK-54 belonging to Brent Groff.
Brent Groff is owner of Old Town Hobby Shoppe on Main Street in Old Town Lewisville.
Click the picture to go to Shoppe's website.
Next is Tommy Meyer's WWI SE-5A
Here is Chad Morphew's EXTRA-300
Jim's, Mark's & Chad's P-47 Thunderbolts
With a little formation flying practice, someday this will be a nice tight picture.
That's the Pitts in the upper left, tho'.
Here's the rest of the crowd:
Gary Osborne's glider in the early morning sunrise glow
Tommy's F22 has a bead on Mark's!
Notice the blur of the prop on Tommy's F-22
And Derek Couch owns a well conditioned 1966 Chevrolet pickup.
Did we have a little WWI re-enactment going on at HMF on Saturday? Nah...
is capable of doing. He's a master photographer and picture processing genius.
This is one of my photo's (second row, right of the SE-5's) with Mike's touch added.
