We went to the air show at Nellis Air Force Base on Saturday. It was Dane's first, and I haven't been since I was so young that I don't remember anyway. We got there right after the doors opened and I am so glad we did. THey bussed everyone from the Nascar parking lot to the base, and by the time we got on the bus the line looked like at least a 1/4 mile long. We were worried about the traffic, so we only stayed about two hours, but saw some really cool jets, stunt planes, parachute tricks, helicopters, and even a jet car that raced an airplane. I will definitely take a chair, some more sunscreen, a hat, and be prepared to stay longer next time....what a cool event....and it's FREE! Here are some pics..
Dane loved being able to climb on some of the airplanes
There was a huge military cargo plane on display that you would walk through.
Here is us walking up into the rear of the cargo plane...it was ginormous!
the Thunderbirds were impressive (although we left before their demonstration because, as you can see, Dane was out)
