I like the red

[brisk hinge]

but they’re trying to use it more this year

[delicate silo]

Hope they use it for usafa

[brisk hinge]

i doubt it

they will have just used them the prior weekend for memorial day

[delicate silo]

Buh

[rocky coyote]

Still loving the 2s solar it’s exactly what I want in a watch

[exotic rain]

Yeah god, charge mine once a month and abuse the fuck out of it and zero signs of damage
Sure the bands got a bit of wear and tear but nothing to be afraid of

HARRIER DEMO AT CHERRY POINT???

i don’t think i can make it but that’s sick

[uneven fog]

Level 3 is like the acro demo

200mm focal length restriction

yikes

[brisk hinge]

skull

will NOT be going as a spectator

anyway i talked to a friend and he said he’s pretty sure he can get me an air to air at oshkosh

[uneven fog]

Chat do your people need a 3 day audio guy

I don’t really know much about speakers but I can help place them in inconvenient spots in exchange for being on the other side of the fence

[delicate silo]

BUHH

[delicate silo]

Ong

[brisk hinge]

deal fr

we don’t have cherry point anyway though

i forgot how horrifically mid the thunderbirds are

blue angels clear all day

[brittle bridge]

😭😭😭

aw hell nah

[uneven fog]

Ref??????

This is just an abysmal take

[brittle bridge]

tbirds my beloved

he just a hater

[uneven fog]

The viper is a faster jet so that contributes to it, but the TB do a better job with mixing it up with different formations

Blue angels are definitely better, but the TB demo almost feels more entertaining

[brittle bridge]

I prefer the tbirds livery over the ba

[brisk hinge]

the birds maneuvers are tame and they’re sooo spaced out

[uneven fog]

In the past 3 years I’ve also seen like 13 BA demos vs like 2.5 TB demos

[brisk hinge]

i’ve seen the birds like 3 times and the blues maybe 6, but still

[uneven fog]

This was true 8 years ago

[brisk hinge]

?

no this is true today

i saw them fly today

[uneven fog]

Pics or it didn’t happen

[brisk hinge]

i shot on my film cam

[uneven fog]

Geek

[brisk hinge]

here this was today

[uneven fog]

But either way the TB have taken it way in

[brisk hinge]

i’m sure

they’re still mid

[uneven fog]

I meant like proof of loose flying

horrendous take never post takes again

[brisk hinge]

the blues are so much higher octane though

and the timing is much better, there’s almost always a jet in front of you

[uneven fog]

that’s true the TB flow could use some work

[brisk hinge]

i’ve had this take before and coming into this show i told myself “maybe i’m just overplaying that i. my mind”…i was not

blues are quick and tight, birds are smooth but not exciting and their passes are spaced so far apart in timing

[uneven fog]

Mostly cause they have a good bit of solo solo maneuvers, so one solo does a pass, the other one, and then the diamond

And then the solo repo takes too long

[brisk hinge]

yeah

and the solo passes (even opposing passes) aren’t nearly as exciting as the blues are

[uneven fog]

That’s a valid take but I feel like in just demonstrating the capability of their respective jets the TB do a better job

[brisk hinge]

in what way

their min radius turns might be slightly smaller but they’re certainly not faster

[uneven fog]

The solo program for the TB has a bunch of high speed, high G, big climbs, a bunch of roll rate demos

[brisk hinge]

big climbs are boring, high speed fast passes and rolls are things the blues do too, same with high Gs

[uneven fog]

But the BA solo rolling maneuvers are all opposing so there’s more focus on the actual hit than the roll rate of the jet. The TB just send a jet right down the show line and roll it like 5 times

Less skill required 100% percent but in terms of exhibiting what the jet is capable of

[brisk hinge]

cool, the viper is capable of going fast

so is the super hornet

the blue angels pilots have the edge in terms of showcasing skill

also i don’t remember a 5x (or similar) roll, but i’ll look out for that

[uneven fog]

Uh it might be 3 I haven’t seen the TB in a while

I think it’s a left to right pass

[brisk hinge]

most of the birds passes are single jet doing straight passes either flat, knife edge, or inverted

[uneven fog]

The slow roll is actually incredibly difficult

[brisk hinge]

sure but blues do a similar thing

[uneven fog]

no?

[brisk hinge]

don’t remember if it’s a slow roll or hesi

[uneven fog]

Yeah they do a 4 point

[brisk hinge]

thought it was more than 4 but could be wrong

[uneven fog]

TB might do an 8 point I can’t remember

[brisk hinge]

i’m judging this mostly based on vibes though, not necessary tracking each and every maneuver

and TB just feel tamer

[uneven fog]

did you see the high show today

[brisk hinge]

i didn’t watch most of the show today because they didn’t fly all of the jets

they only flew 3-4

but they flew more earlier

[uneven fog]

oh interesting

[brisk hinge]

they burnt like 45+ minutes of the 1.5h left in the waiver on maintenance issues

[uneven fog]

Typically they do a Friday morning 4 ship just diamond, and then an afternoon 7 ship

[brisk hinge]

yeah they did 4 ship this morning but two solos and two diamond pilots

[uneven fog]

Oh wow

[brisk hinge]

they flew some in diamond and some solo

[uneven fog]

that mightve been like their survey flight

[brisk hinge]

yeah i’m not sure

[uneven fog]

I just know how the blues operate

I’m headed down to Pensacola/Eglin at the end of the month

Gonna try to spot Eglin but we will see

Supposedly super strict

[brisk hinge]

oh nice

[uneven fog]

I found the document that all the pilots read with the procedures and shit

And the crew for flight ops

This is under the photography section

Lowkey no idea what those operations in that document consist of

Public can’t access it

So basically I’ll just be taking pics and then get genuinely slimed out by SF

[brisk hinge]

[delicate silo]

Heck bah

Tbirds better

There is a few im not a fan of

[severe heart]

Yeah I’ve figured that out

[pearl ridge]

Did you see another lakenheath f15 got taken down

[severe heart]

Yep 494

I do think the tilt works well on the first shot in that group and the f35 turning on taxi aprt from that not rlly

[brisk hinge]

needs to be a wider crop but yes

[pearl ridge]

I was bored lowk

[severe heart]

You fuckass Americans are so lucky

Like wdym you have a restored phantom that’s gonna be displaying, and then f22 f35 f16 f/18F f-18g display teams!?!?

[pearl ridge]

Lakenheath is bipolar

[severe heart]

Although, GERMAN TORNADO AT RIAT FLYING HELL YEAHHHH

[pearl ridge]

YEAHHHHHHH

I cant wait

[severe heart]

I have never seen that flying

RIAT last year was my first proper airshow

I’m planning to go Friday Saturday Sunday YIPPEE

[pearl ridge]

There might even be a Su-30 possibly

[severe heart]

WHAT

WAIT

WHAT

How

[pearl ridge]

Indian airforce are discussing coming

One of their main fightees are their su-30MKI

They could defo bring them

[severe heart]

Mate

That would be mad

[pearl ridge]

Ik bro it would be insanity

[severe heart]

Although having Indian AF and Pakistani in the same place

Wouldn’t be ideal

Su-30, tornado, would be so so so sick, but I really want the Hellenic or Turkish phantom

[pearl ridge]

I reckon the indians are only going to try and one up the pakistanis who went last year

[pearl ridge]

I neeeeed to see more turkish af sruff

Soloturk and the F4 especially

And the saudis are coming back too

Pax River is in less than 90 days and this is what the website looks like

[brittle bridge]

Skill issue tbh

[uneven fog]

I was looking at it but now seeing how they’ve kinda mismanaged this

[brisk hinge]

TBs ground show is horrifically long and empty

like painfully long and empty

[brittle bridge]

Yeah i will agree with that

[brittle bridge]

[brittle bridge]

Z6 ‼️‼️‼️

[brisk hinge]

was shooting planes with the z6iii/300+1.4x and i just manually focused the fireworks so af performance wasn’t an issue

[brittle bridge]

lol

15-30?

[brisk hinge]

actually i manually focused the drones at f/2.8 (but left them slightly out of focus so that the lights were bigger and brighter), then shot fireworks at f/8 or something and didn’t bother refocusing

[brisk hinge]

24-70 though i could’ve done 15-30, i shot everything at 24mm

other than the odd high one it was pretty perfect framing though

[brittle bridge]

Nice

[uneven fog]

This is ur best take yet

[uneven fog]

@brisk hinge FOUR JZ eagles??

That’s insane

[brisk hinge]

i don’t think they were all JZ, I think at least one was an MD but yeah

[uneven fog]

MA not MD I think

Maryland had hogs not eagles

They’re still part of the LA guard they just haven’t repainted yet

[brisk hinge]

maybe so yeah

it was M something and then i was also talking about a MD hogs sticker with someone so you’re probably right

[uneven fog]

Those were our boys 💔

Fuck one of those is a ZZ tail

I suck

[flint smelt]

For the Rome airshow?

JZ, MA, and a Florida tail all Bayou tho

Not sure about the backup one tho.

Oh wait i didn’t see ur comment’s above

[brisk hinge]

yeah all bayou

[brisk hinge]

are you here?

[flint smelt]

Oh no, lol. I was watching a guy yesterday who usually streams from Hawaii, but he is in Atlanta rn.

[brisk hinge]

Doesn’t today mark Cajuns passing?

[delicate silo]

Bye bye speakers

Might get some vapor

[brisk hinge]

yeah they did a dedication before the show

[brisk hinge]

surprisingly little

[brisk hinge]

we lost 10 speakers and we only had maybe 20 set up

[delicate silo]

Tbf rain doesn't equal rain

[brisk hinge]

they had plastic bags on them but they all blew over and smashed the ground

[brisk hinge]

[delicate silo]

🤑

Vapor

[brisk hinge]

yeah

[uneven fog]

Holy this is pure lyrical perfection

rain ≠ rain

Mind boggling

This is like Aristotle level

Gah damn

Bad casualty rate

[brisk hinge]

[supple rose]

Well I didn’t really think of that after takeoff it flies higher than it has to on approach

But

I spent some time up there

[gentle helm]

[supple rose]

And I got to see a military helicopter that wasn’t on radar

[supple rose]

With a paint job I haven’t seen before

[supple rose]

I don’t get that close unfortunately

[gentle helm]

[supple rose]

I crashed my bike last week carrying my cam

[gentle helm]

so it sort of paid off

[supple rose]

I flipped fast enough so my cam wouldn’t get hurt

[gentle helm]

i had to go to greece for the valley photoshoot so i had to buy a new one

repairs would've lasted atleast 120 days

i catched the Z8 midair tho

[supple rose]

Holy 800MP pls work

[brittle bridge]

Lol

[gentle helm]

reentry

[brisk hinge]

at this point i’m not trying to minmax my shows, mixing it up with a new show in a new environment will be fun

[uneven fog]

Genuinely what is even the plan for Charleston

[brisk hinge]

fly over the harbor

...i guess spectators will just find their own spot to watch?

i haven't seen any official viewing area

i don't even know where the airboss will be

[uneven fog]

It’s going to be such a clusterfuck

[brisk hinge]

for real

[uneven fog]

Also just something I’m curious about, you’d have some insight

How do Airboss and discrete freqs get picked?

Does each Airboss just have an assigned frequency that they take show site to show site

Or do the Feds just tell you what frequency to use

[brisk hinge]

i don’t know for sure, but i’m pretty sure it’s up to the bosses

i was talking to kellie about something else the other day and she was saying that she has a frequency she normally uses for discrete, i forget what it was but it was related to rob holland

[delicate silo]

Holy ratio

[uneven fog]

I didn’t realize how slow those props are

[gentle helm]

[delicate silo]

@gentle helm

[brittle bridge]

Im not going to st louis you bomboclat

[uneven fog]

Does it matter

What if I kidnap you and slime you out in stl

[uneven fog]

@brisk hinge I guess they did Charleston over the harbor a couple years back, the Yorktown was CP so I assume that’s where it’ll be this year

No idea if that means yall will be on board and there will be spectators up there too?

[brisk hinge]

that makes sense

at the moment i’d be surprised if we set up speakers for a public audience, but we’re internally looking at options

but also completely unrelated, some friends who own a pretty sizable sailboat invited us to hang out with them on the boat in the harbor for that show, so that’s where i’ll probably be

i’d be surprised if we set up much sound equipment

[uneven fog]

That’s what I would think

People are just gonna be too spread out

could be smart to look into doing a radio feed

But idk what that entails from yalls and

I assume a lot

[brisk hinge]

yeah

[brisk hinge]

we don’t have the licensing to do an FM broadcast though that hasn’t stopped us before, but we’re looking at internet streaming options

[uneven fog]

Pax River dropped the ball so hard

CBus is the better show by a mile now

[brisk hinge]

what happened now

[uneven fog]

They put their performers on their website

Not a single local demo

No Oceana

No Norfolk

No Pax River

[brittle bridge]

I changed it to L88 BYRON

L for Lottery 300, then car number, then driver last name

[brisk hinge]

[brisk hinge]

for Charleston there are only two performers, Fema and the Blues

going to be a very mid show but luckily for me i’ll be watching it from a friends big boat

[uneven fog]

I bet they don’t have the money to do civilians

And probably also waiver issues?

The feds don’t work very fast

[brisk hinge]

yeah

[uneven fog]

Herc party

[brittle bridge]

https://tenor.com/view/breaking-bad-mid-walter-white-gif-26241410

[rocky coyote]

Charleston in South Carolina?

[brisk hinge]

yeah

the show was originally a two day show at JB Charleston, then they moved it to a one-day show over the harbor

[rocky coyote]

I have a mate moving there

I presume it’s not land locked

[uneven fog]

Going from ass location to even more ass location

[brisk hinge]

i'm trying to decide if i'm going to go to Wings over Carolina Beach

turns out our hotel rooms are at least a block from the beach, so i couldn't watch the show from there

and without a high-up view, a beach show is just a regular show but you're sitting in the sun on hot sand

[uneven fog]

I’d rather sit in the hot sun on the beach than on hot ass concrete

[gentle helm]

fellers

should i edit frontal or rear

[uneven fog]

Acting like editing costs money or sum

[gentle helm]

costs time

i have to be outside in an hour

im a very busy man with a very busy schedule

[rare vector]

An hour is more than enough to edit two pics

I like frontal more

[gentle helm]

not when im editing

[gentle helm]

you see

im a bit of a masochist

i hand mask

because unfortunately Lr sucks at automatic mask

[rare vector]

For that lr masking should work great

[gentle helm]

unfortunately it was selecting the trees

[rare vector]

I almost never have problems using subject or object masks

The fuck

[gentle helm]

object masks are good except for high lumi change areas

which this pic had plenty

@rare vector look

house behind is masked, fuel tank is faded

nose is faded

[rare vector]

Huh yeah true, but fixing that should take 5 mins

[gentle helm]

i like to take my time

i mean its not like im trying to get it to a client on time or anythiing

[gentle helm]

the worst part is

[delicate silo]

Both

[rare vector]

Huh yeah true, but fixing that should take 5 mins

[gentle helm]

feels like a lot more than 5 mins of work for sure

[rare vector]

bro my discord is buggin

[gentle helm]

i never timed it

[rare vector]

no clue why the message sent twice

[brisk hinge]

fixing the mask should take 30 seconds

NOT 5 minutes

[gentle helm]

i know a guy who does it in 2 miliseconds

[delicate silo]

More like 5s

💀 💀

[brisk hinge]

real

[delicate silo]

Im not good at editing but I love masks

[lavish loom]

damn

[supple rose]

That would have looked great if I had been there a tiny bit earlier with my a7 IV and my 600mm

[uneven fog]

The fact I ain’t know about that software until like last week is absolutely criminal

[uneven fog]

I broke my first one and then resorted to buying a second and manually programmed the entire thing

[delicate silo]

Y

[brittle bridge]

What

[delicate silo]

Why 2

[brittle bridge]

one is frens

I program for him

[brisk hinge]

you have two??

[delicate silo]

O

[brittle bridge]

read above

literally one message

[brisk hinge]

oh

hadn't read that far down yet

[brisk hinge]

that sounds like hell

[brittle bridge]

Why the fuck would I have two

[delicate silo]

Cause ur financially irresponsible

Duh

[brisk hinge]

[brittle bridge]

I’m not that stupid

genuinely why would I need two

[brisk hinge]
