Had a fun time at Leesburg last Saturday. Currently working on my videos, so stay tuned for a few once I upload them onto YouTube. The flying displays at this year's show was amazing from Chris Thomas to the Wing-Walking act by the Bealeton Flying Circus.

One of the cool things about the Leesburg Airshow is that you get to interact with the pilots before and after they flew their displays. Here's a photo of me with Chris Thomas (left hand side) and David Windmiller (right hand side).
