Has anyone done the photo pit at this show in the past? If so, what’re your thoughts? I attended the Dayton show in the photo pit in 2018, 19, 21, and 22. Prior to 2022, it was great. $150 for the entire weekend: two hour early entry, media parking, and the photo pit. Best deal in airshows, in my o...

I don’t remember a lot from those days but I do remember B-2 and F-117 flybys, a Harrier demo, and seeing the A-10 for the first tim...

Made the trip out for the show and it was an enjoyable day - perfect weather aside from having a clear blue background all day! I only went on Saturday and I wish I could have gone on Sunday too - I think I had an off day on Saturday and would have liked a redo, and the hot ramp was only open for tw...

I'm trying to decide on a fall photo trip and one of my options is to spend a day at this show before hopefully taking in some fall color in the rest of the state. I didn't find a lot of feedback on this show from previous years, it has several aircraft I haven't seen before so I do like the lineup ...

I had so much fun with this! Still haven't had time to go through my pictures closely from the weekend but I got some shots from the night run that I really like.
