As mentioned in this earlier entry, I was going to share pics (which were shot with my Nikon D3300 DSLR camera) that I took of two F/A-18 Hornets in flight during the Miramar Air Show last Saturday. In the photo above, the Hornets are traveling just below the speed of sound as they soared above the air field at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar. Along with AV-8B Harriers and a C-130 Hercules, the pair of F/A-18s conducted a combat demo that simulated them attacking targets on the ground. Pretty cool... There were lots of explosions (not caused by actual bombs, of course) during this demonstration. You'll see that when I post images that I took of the Blue Angels in my next entry. Happy Friday!
