Blue Angels











These pictures are from the Fargo Air Show in June of 2007. We took over 400 pictures that day. It was hot out. To watch these jets do their manuevers at the speed they attain is amazing. I tried to narrow it down to a few pictures. In some of these pictures they are only a few feet to inches apart. They will be back in Fargo August
22 and 23, 2009. If you ever get a chance to see them it is worth it.

B17 Flying Fortress


When I was a kid in grade school my favorite warplane was the B-17 Flying Fortress. It is the plane that is credited for beating Germany in WWII. These planes dropped bombs on Germany for weeks at a time without stopping. Day and night. Last summer this plane stopped at the Fargo Airport for a weekend. You could walk through it and even go for a ride in it.
