I was able to get in today with no issues! No lines for parking or security when I got here a little after 7:30.
I had my long lens in my bag this time and they didn’t even take it out.

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
I actually did end up having a decent time today, despite not being able to get any food or beverage, merch, or check out the statics. There was a fairly good size area just before security at the end of the runway that we were able to watch the show from that I was afraid they were going to kick us...

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
I spent hundreds of dollars, drove a thousand miles, and waited in some of the worst air show traffic I’ve experienced only to be denied entry because my 60-600 lens was too long. A guy told the Marine going through my bag to have me extend the lens, and told him it was too long. I had them both con...

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
A handful of new statics added, since I last looked - including an Apache. I was planning to head out before the Blues on Sunday to start my drive back to the Mitten State a little early, but if there's even a chance that being the last one out the gates will allow me to get a few shots of the Apach...

Re: SR71 N Blackbird
I've only seen a few on display - the most interesting one to me is at the SAC museum in Ashland NE - definitely cluttered surroundings but this was from my early days of photography when I didn't pay much attention to composition, so there might be an opportunity there for a cleaner shot - 201710_S...

Re: Thunder Over Michigan 2023
I've given up hope of making it through 2023's photos in any kind of timely manner so here are a few I picked out to take a closer look at. I think I got some of my personal best photos yet at this show.
