Great New England Air Show

This weekend was the much anticipated Great New England Air Show was Westover ARB in Chicopee. Saturday was a bust because of Tropical Storm Hanna. Sunday morning, a scare rocked the show as "Shockwave", a jet propelled truck crashed during its performance. Luckily the driver walked away.

I arrived just in time to catch the 2pm Thunderbirds show. As usual, they did not disappoint.

The Thunderbirds show went on for about an hour. The six Lockheed Martin F-16 fighter jets made several manuvers during the performance.

"The Diamond"

The kids in the audience, including my daughter, loved the thundering roar of these mighty fighter jets
