Very nice shots. ; Makes me want to go. The Red Tail, is that a P52?

Thanks, all. ; The plane/bike shot was with the 200-400. ; I'm glad there was a one-hour limit on the loaner equipment - my arm couldn't hold that monster much longer.
Michael, you are correct, the P-51D has a bubble conopy for the classic Mustang look. ; The C model has a profile similar to a P-40.

Here's my final batch of air show photos, at least until I can figure out how to compare shots from the D800 to my D300.

A PV-2 Harpoon which lives here in Indy. ; Note the mission markings below the cockpit. ; This shot was taken with a D800. ; Notice how much better 36 megapixels looks? ;
