Geneseo 2008 Originally uploaded by airshowblogger
The 2008 Geneseo air show was one of the best air show experiences I’ve ever had, as far as flying went. I drove about 6hrs to be there and it was well worth the time and gas money — which in this day is saying a lot! This year, the folks at the Historical Aircraft Group (HAG) tried to wrangle in a large gathering of P-40 Warhawks. I really like it when an air show puts a concentrated effort on a specific type of plane, because it means I’m more likely to see planes that I haven’t before. Sure, I’ve seen P-40s fly, but there were 2 there that I’d never even seen!
