Peoria Air Show

Today we had the opportunity to check out the Prairie Air Show today with some of our friends.  We went to the show with Tim, Mike, Kendra, Will and Avery.  Tim’s wife Cris works for a local radio station that was a sponsor of the event which gave us the chance to be VIPs.

The radio group’s tent was up close to the action and the spread of food was great.  Our location was great to see the planes take off and land. Here are some photos from our venture.

When we arrived the Army Golden Nights were ready to take the skies.

Next we saw the Blue Angels perform.  Seeing these guys fly in such close formations was quite amazing…

Blue Angels flying upside down. I wonder if they ever loose their lunch.

Will, Cris and Tim’s son, enjoying the show.  If it made noise he was sure to point it out today.

Some random shots of some planes on the runway.

The worlds fastest truck is powered by 3 jet engines.  It ran down the runway at 350+ miles per hour and burned over 100 gallons of fuel in one run down the runway.
