Headed down to Ellington for the day......not got camera yet (still ship-bound from UK) so humble apologies for quality of pics taken on cell-phone. Tell you what, that Rhino really tore a hole in the sky lol

 

Started out with a belter of a thunderstorm but after a lengthy delay, finally got going:

Tora Tora display (Zeros) was also very good - no pics taken unfortunately.

 

Overall a cracking good day!

All good - got to see most of the show as they crammed a lot into the time available. Hell, seeing the Thunderbirds was reason enough for the trip - first time for me seeing them so scaratch one off the bucket-list :D

 

Oh yes, Jeep Cherokee........tell you what, just emigrated from the UK three weeks ago and car-purchasing is an absolute bloody nightmare......:megalol:

Love the Astros avatar. Yeah wings over houston has always been really good planned and executed show. Yeah they changed how they do buisness with trades so people really get "f"ed now, it is unfortunate but the whole industry has gone that route. Almost as missfortunate as you moving to the biggest growning area in the region, 105 alone is a huge nightmare...
