Thunder Over Georgia Air Show

Thank you, glad you enjoyed the pics. We have been airshow fans for a long time. Up until a couple of years ago, the Blue Angels demonstrated the JATO with their C-130 "Fat Albert," something we were always amazed by. Still enjoy seeing Fat Albert even though they don't demo the JATO anymore.

Yep, the JATO is crazy-cool!
Right after I posted I youtubed it and watched it a coupla' times...!

Unfortunate that they don't demonstrate it anymore...

@donaldtoo this airshow also had Patty Wagstaff, who flew her plane upside down and sliced a ribbon in two that was suspended 20 feet off the runway. I get dizzy just watching her.
There were several specialty planes as well, including a MIG-17 and P51 Mustang, a couple of bi-wings and more. I only got blurry photos of them. Should have taken the DSLR with zoom lens but I did not want to spend the day watching the show through a camera viewfinder.

Check out some videos of Patty Wagstaff if you get a chance.
