Not sure what a 1 cubic foot bag is. I have a Tamrac belt system with three pouches. One carries a camera and lens and the other two carry lenses. I was searched but they allowed it at Andrews AFB. Since I can get the van in and leave the extra equipment there I can always take back some if they tell me I have too much.
Thanks for the information have a good show.

Not sure what a 1 cubic foot bag is...

Measure, in inches, the Length, Width and Height of your bag.  Divide each by 12.  Take the results and L X W X H equals cubic feet.

Or to make it easy the Length + Width + Height needs to be less than 36".

Overcast day. Made for a lot of vapor. Fun show, even if the promised P-3, F-15, and F-22 statics were MIA. Hopefully I'll have pics up tonight, if traffic control can get their act together.

great show, glad I went saturday. Good to see the f-18 practice demo and heritage on friday along with the F-16's out of buckley doing some high speed passes and touch and go's. Also got to see the cancer 757 do a few flyby's.

Seeing the B-1 (especially since the 2nd banked high speed pass went right over me), B-2 was great on saturday, my vantage point was something that people not familiar with the area would know of. Not always to best view being on the field.

pics later, this weather is not making me motivated.

Do the planes ever go over the water? A friend with a boat told me he gets a pretty good view sitting on the Lake during the show. Anybody have any feel for how accurate a statement this is?

Some of you guys who got good B-1 shots, in a week or so I will pm you a email.  Dave and I hung out with the B-1 crews at rockford and really enjoy seeing pics of theirselves flying.  When I get they're emails, I will pass them along to you and it would be much appreciated if you sent them some of your shots of them flying.

the only planes that would fly over the water would maybe the A-10's, kc-135 or the thunderbirds. What you have to do is take the clinton river up to selfridge and you will be right at the south end of the runway.

Make sure to check asb.tv for other pics and news/reviews. I know I wont post my pics here because I really dont want to take the additional time to reduce the file sizes.

Didn't notice it until now but it looks as though the WSO is waving to the crowd in that last Legacy Flight shot.  Cool!
