    Nice pic star17 though I wish I had a 32" screen to see the whole shot. Is that the air force acrobatic team, can't recall the name ATM. Good news on the launch, man the tight schedule is even tighter now. I hope a new White House administration will cut some slack for you guys. It would be a shame not to finish everything.

    I saw them both at the southport airshow a year or so ago pretty cool show,you can hear everything move they perform through the loudspeaker as ordered by the no1 plane a major I think he was, the parachute guys hung around afterwards giving autographs and stuff,they were walking past us and everyone was scrambling to get autographs I didnt realise they were so famous:D

    Best part of ther show was the harrier for me though,deafening :guitar :dood

    I love that high-res shot of the Thunderbird's

    Star you ever got to mess with Columbia at the [SIZE=-1]Ames Research Center[/SIZE]? [SIZE=-1]10240 Processors sounds like fun:D

    Also you should of seen how bad the smoke was here from the fires. I got some photos i took at 3PM yesterday it was a clear day only thing in the air was smoke and it was so bad every time i went out side i would start to choke from the smoke and the smell of burnt woods the smoke was so thick you could look right at the sun and not have a problem ;) I tried to make it smaller but i could not get it down in res without it trying to cut out the pic and Imageshack was resetting the connection everytime i tryed to get them to resize it ;) http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/8900/sunp0001yj3.jpg

    I knew the crash was real but I thought the kids playing were superimposed onto the film,when I was there no one was allowed anywhere near the water,the beach was roped off about 1\2 mile from the sea front,it was my understanding that the planes arnt allowed to fly so close to spectators incase of incident,all the flyovers even the red arrows never flew over or anywhere near the crowd,the closest they came incuding the harrier was about the sea from which as I said was 1\2 a mile away from the spectator rope barrier which was patrolled by army personel confused
