Thunder Over Michigan Airshow Pictures!

Here is a selection of images from the Thunder Over Michigan on Saturday. The majority of the aircraft were WII era, with some modern ones as static and flight displays too.

All images taken with a Canon PowerShot 6.0 Megapixel SD600 ELPH with 3X optical and 12X digital zooms. I have a lot more, including some video I'll put up there soon enough.

Based out of Hamilton Ontario- They stole parts from my uncle to make that crate fly. My unc is totally rebuilded one that used to be on a post in Toronto. Let's just say that Lancasters weren't made corrosion-resistant. It's sitting in his workshop in more pieces than Pangea.

That joke was terrible. My bad.
