RE: Market Friday Goes to the Air Show - Part One

in #marketfriday5 years ago (edited)

I remember admiring a previous air show post of yours @dswigle but this one is crammed full outstanding images and interesting information. It must be a thrill to get that close to such magnificent planes but even more so to see them in action.

It must take many hours of practice to perfect the skill of flying in close precision the way they do. I look forward to seeing what you come up with for Part 2. Have an awesome weekend my friend. (U & R )

Here is my entry:

Oh you are absolutely right! It takes years of practice and before they even get into that cockpit they have to be a very accomplished flyer to begin with. Competition to get a slump is steep. Believe it or not they have a female on the team, I can remember when it wasn't even a thought that a female should be allowed on the team. Oh how times have changed. The first time I saw a female, I actually had to look twice but not really because it was a huge announcement when it happened. I'm pretty sure that's some politician decided that they needed some diversity which to me is the wrong way to do it but then they never voted the right way to begin with if they excluded females. Now off of that volatile little subject.

I absolutely love watching the show because every year it's something different, even every show is something different although it would be hard for me to keep track of how they do it because I'm always stunned at the level of difficulty in which the shows are produced. In my wildest dreams I can't imagine getting that close to another plane and not crashing it, but for them to go upside down straight up in the air and down into a flat spin well, I am truly in awe. Thank you for taking the time to peruse my post and to support Market Friday the way that you do. It is because of people like yourself that my challenge has survived and going on for nearly two years. So thank you for that and I want to wish you a very wonderful weekend!

#MarketFriday loves you!
