Actually my father took them. I couldn't make it to the air show because I had to work. My father took lots of pictures and I got to check them out later. I wish I could of seen the mock Japanese attack with pyrotechnics.

 I haven't been to an airshow in probably eight or nine years now. I've yet to actually see a F22 with my own eyes  sad_o.gif

I saw both when they did an airshow here at NAS Oceana a couple years ago.  That Pearl Harbor tribute is very moving, they have air raid sirens playing over the speakers and music as well

Never been to an airshow myself, though I lived in Japan for a few years and went on holiday to Okinawa, where there's both a USAF and USMC airbase. Got the fright of my life when I was relaxing on the beach, nearly asleep, when an AV-8B came tearing across the sky at low-level. I'd try to sign up to the Marines if I could be guaranteed a posting to Okinawa  smile_o.gif

From the main street in one of the towns, you can see F-15s coming in to land, which was great for me, but I imagine you might get tired of the racket if you lived there.
