Well, nobody has complained about it yet, but I fixed the gallery bug that was sending you to a different photo when you clicked on a thumbnail. Sorry about that.

Yes this was very cool. Before everyone freaks out about the 47 being close to the landing aircraft.... this was a demo flight they were the only 3 birds in the sky and the 47 had a wing cam on it. Should have that video soon.
Ok guys here is the chase video from the big 47 during the Moki Funness. Meister-Scale is a dealer of these cameras and after seeing this i had to order 2 of them. Going to make great gun cams!

Day 2 has been uploaded to the album: http://www.kovarindustries.com/coppe...ls.php?album=5

For those who find nice pictures of their planes, if you click on the image in the album viewer, you get the full resolution image which you can save to your computer. Pictures taken with the Nikon 300s (4288x2848) will make very good prints up to 14"x9" and those taken with the D800 (5520x3680) 18"x12". Those values are for 300dpi prints which look very nice. You can drop to 240dpi and get up to 17"x11" and 23"x15". There will be a little drop off in sharpness, but probably not noticeable.

Everyone enjoy.

Thanks again

My coverage article of this year's Warbirds Over Texas went live today. I do want to apologize for the delay in getting it out. Our webmaster had his vacation scheduled for right in the middle of me getting this article out. So I had to wait for him to get back before I could get it out to you all. I hope you enjoy the coverage. I have included over 400 pictures from the event and 48 separate videos from the show. Terry needs to take a bow as he has put together a very outstanding event and has firmly placed himself up there with some of the premier events in the country. I can't wait to be back down there next year to cover again.

Here's where you can find my article:

Thanks for the outstanding coverage, Ken! I haven't gone through all of the videos, but the first two are great!

We look forward to seeing everybody next year on
June 14-16
for the third edition of
Warbirds Over Texas

On behalf of Terry and the North Dallas RC Club, we'd like to thank again all of our volunteers, pilots, crews, sponsors and visitors for making this a great event!

See you next year!
