There was an airshow neer where i live yesterday so me and my friends went and i brought my camera. It was great the Harrier jump jet is one of the loudest things ive ever heard. It was hovering for a good 5 minutes right infront of me. another thing that was crazyyyyy was the high speed passes by the F-18 and F-15. When the F-18 flew by i saw it and there was silence then 2 seconds later i heard the noise. The part i liked most was the UH-60 Blackhawks. They had a some kind of training attack thing. First two C-130s flew over and turned right then a group of 4 Uh-60s and a UH-1 flew in. Three of the UH-60s landed and dropped of troops then sat there and the UH-1 had 4 guys rappel of of the sides. The fourth Blackhawk flew strait and lit up the airfield ( they already had explosives on the airfield to simulate a grenade launcher or sumthin).

Is that a truck with a Jet Engine in the first photo? Do they really have to patronise the people so much, not all people that go to Air Shows are those type of people.

Oh no, I like jet engines. I just don't like seeing them bolted onto trucks like a fucking redneck. If I wanted to go to a redneck truck show, i'd go to a redneck truck show

Sunderland International Airshow is on next month, that's always a good one.

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

I'm surprised the Harrier didn't fall out of the sky.

As I've said they've served us well but they are old now. Crashes are fairly occasional now.
