Warbirds: 17 March 2007

50 years of evolution...in one photo

When my flight to New York was rescheduled, I was free to attend the 2nd Annual Warbirds Air Show at the Space Coast Regional Airport (IATA:TIX). I witnessed, for the first time, the incredible feats that the pilots had to do in dogfights and to compensate for the not-so-powerful engines at the time. I left the air show with a newfound respect for the World War I pilots, and realized why back then, pilots from enemy countries were treated like friends by other pilots when captured.
