82-1066 (cn 1001/AV-1) My first TOM show and not my last. I will be back next year. They put on a great show. Not to many shows have a B-2 flyby. I have never been to a show that I remember that had a B-2 and a Bone in the same sky. Only thing that would have been better would have been a formation flight.

158927 (cn 185-5599) Detailed tail marking view of VP-16's P-3C Orion, with the Centennial marked P-3C 160770 from VP-6 in the background. Rare to have 2 P-3's at the same air show. VP-16 is scheduled to bring one of their Orions to the Cleveland Air Show this year.

158927 (cn 185-5599) Always one of my favorites, this Orion is new to the data base for Opshots, photographed at Thunder over Michigan 2011. Flown by VP-16 out of Jacksonville NAS, FL. Nice to see the Navy returning some color to their fleet. At one time, in addition to full low visibility paint, the Navy would not even display the s/n's on their P-3 aircraft.

Blue Angel #3 was actually "Blue Angel #1" that day due to the #1 aircraft being down for maintenance.

N3193G / 44-85829 (cn 77255) I usually do not do black and whites. But the fresh shower and misty field in the background just begged it to be! Taxiing out taking a group of lucky passengers on a tour. This represents the fifth airport we have caught this beast at!

NL10601 / 73843/VF-G (cn 122) This Mustang was built by North American Aviation in Inglewood, CA on 4/11/1945 as Air Force serial # 44-73843. It was only used as a trainer for 6 months, then stored for 6 years. On 1/11/1951 it was transferred to the RCAF until 1956. This became the first airplane purchased by the CAF in 1956.

82-1066 (cn 1001/AV-1) This B-2, nicknamed "Spirit of America", did a few fly-bys at the Thunder Over Michigan Airshow. It is also the U.S. Air Force's first, and therefore oldest, B-2.
