Rich,
Just got in from a full day at Joe Nall. As usual, a bazillion airplanes of every type flying non-stop. I would say there were a few more jets than usual, although I don't recall seeing a single jet or turbine manufacturer in attendance. Chief Aircraft had by far the largest selection of jets o sale. Here are a few "static" shots of jets I saw.:

The noon-time demo consisted of a variety of planes (and a helicopter), plus a few turbines. The turbines included a P-80 powered 5 meter sailplane with smoke on the wingtips. A very aggressive and impressive routine.
Quique Somenzini put on the same routine with his thrust vectored F-16 as he did at FL Jets. Also very impressive.
Another guy (a German?) flew a routine with a thrust vectored J-10.
Ali Machinchy put on a really nice demo with his big Airworld F-104.

...and a few more miscellaneous jets flying. I know the big red Hawk is Jeff Stubbs and I think the desert camo A-10 belongs to Walt Larsen. Not sure about the others.
OK, I also slipped in a couple of Ali and David Payne flying formation with some sort of vintage prop planes.

We'll, I'm not sure why it re-posted those photos as "attachments"....guess I pushed a wrong button. Anyhow, here's just one more. A close up of the thrust vectored F-16 Quique and Dave Ribbe are marketing. I think this one is the first "production" version. Deliveries to start soon. They also mentioned a second (unnamed) jet is in the works.

I flew 28 gallons of fuel in my skymaster hawk on the classic line. There was a photographer there taking photos. He probably took several hundred pictures of my hawk. I can't find him???

I think that was Robert Vest and he has a website but I noticed last year he only post a few shots and they are post in June of 15. Great guy and I was hoping to see one he showed me at the event of my bird. I would like to buy it if I could. I sure he is charging for his work.
I would have to say you did the most Hawk flights. I came in second with 18 gallons burned.
Here is the best image of the event..
Ali on a noon demo slow roll....the picture says the rest.

No... It wasn't Robert Vest. This photographer wasn't there selling. He was there having fun. I asked him if I could buy my photos??? He said I could get the photos but didn't talked about $$$ and that he didn't do this for money. He was writing down everybody's information in a book. I figured he would be sending emails about photos??? I was only there Sunday - Wednesday. Everybody at home got a stomach bug and had to go home. If anyone knows who he may be please post.
