QCAS 2006
On Sunday, June 4th, Amanda, Phil, and myself attended the QC Air Show. We got there around 12:30 and had some lunch at the Exelon chalet. After a quick bite we grabbed a couple seats and started watching the air show. Hey Mitch, Mad-Towne 4 life, for awhile. The first plane we saw was the Red Bull stunt plane which was cool, then the Bulldog Bi-Plane took the stage. After about 15 minutes of the Bi-Plane, they had a glider fly around for a bit of “Silent Flight.” Amanda got up at this point to grab a beverage from the tent, and left a small pond of leg sweat on the chair. There was an F-16 demo which led into a three plane, three generation fighter plane demo which included a P-51D, the F-16, and an F-15. They flew around in formation “for awhile,” then the T-28 took off. The T-28 was releasing a new type of smoke that breaks off and attaches to the parallel stream to create a smoke rings. After a brief up skirt intermission thanks to Amanda, Shockwave took the runway. There were a couple of games of Chicken played with the Bulldog Bi-Plane, and then it was time for the F-18 Blue Angels. They started with a Demo of the C-130T “Fat Albert,” and then flew the F-18s in. They flew around in a few different formations. There were a couple fast passes, and a couple slow passes, but the best was the F-18 oral sex demo. You can see number 6 lining up for dinner, and if you look closely, you can see the number 5 plane tilting its nose back a little, and grinning ever so slightly. I managed to get a pic of my nemesis photographer at the show and apparently undercover police work requires fat teenagers these days. They ended the show with this formation, and then they broke apart as you can see in this video co-starring Phillip. We then spent a half hour trying to leave. We were at the air show for four hours, I took 741 pictures. I had to test out the new Canon S3 IS. That’s 3 pics/min.
Here are the rest of the pics.
Here are some pics that Jeremy Ludin took also.

“Mad-town 4 life, 4 a while 4 a little bit longer.”. dude, the pics are nice but I think my favorite pic is of the “nemesis”. Who is that “fat teenager” kidding? Phillip looks good. What up Derek? Faggot.

sooooooooooooooooo this Canon S3IS is something that you are just trying out so you know what you need your mommy to buy next?
damn you and your birthdays

Damn boy your daddy is a hard sell, eh?

No shit Sam. He secretly hates me. He pretty much hates me publicly too. He’s not my real dad though. My real dad is a tall man.

………….and being tall is probably the best attribute that a human (REAL) man could ever harness. I mean it’s nobody’s fault if you are born short anyway, you can make up for it with super fancy cars and things to “make” your dick look a just a lil’ bit bigger. It’s cool, no worries, toupgh guy.

Oh and by the way Ludin’s pictures kick your ass.

June 13th, 2006 at 2:30 pm
I know, I was hesitant to put his up due to that fact.
June 13th, 2006 at 3:05 pm
Haha, nah, Rich’s pics are sweet.
I would consider myself lucky I walked away with the shots I did considering the massive amounts of free beer.

Don: Richard made me do it? And where the hell are Amanda’s 2 cents? It’s pretty uncany that she does’nt have SOMETHING to say.
