McConnel Air Force Show

McConnel Air Force Base hosted an open house and air show yesterday and today. We had planned on only going yesterday, but when it got to the main event (The Thunderbirds) the weather turned bad and they had to cancel the flight. We got to see and do many other cool things but Logan and Eric REALLY wanted to see the Thunderbirds so we went back out again today. After yesterday, we got the lay of the land and showed up super early to do all the fun stuff. (Tour the airplanes, tanks, and helicopters) and we left an hour before the Thunderbirds were scheduled to fly and went to our scoped out spot. We were on a hill at the end of the Air Force's runway and we got so SUPER awesome pictures and didn't have to deal with the crowds afterwords.



































































I also got so really good video (they flew for a LONG time!) but it's too big to post here. What a wonderful day for a little boy who LOVES airplanes!
