Hello from a sunny San Diego!! Well, the MCAS Miramar Airshow has officially started! Last week I got a chance to do a photoshoot with none other then Sean D. Tucker over the skies of San Diego.

Well, actually Sean and the plane I was flying in, an Extra 300 piloted by his son Eric, were the subject for the cover of the San Diego Tribune.

But I decided to take more of an active role by being in the aircraft that was doing the acrobatics. Armed with my wide angle lens, off we went! Tight formations, down low and sometimes inverted, we got the shots!

And after that was done, it was time for a little fun! Sean and Eric took me just off the coast and we did a little acrobatic formation flying. A few loops, some negative and some positive G’s, dancing under the clouds, it was sweet! These guys are amazing!

A very special thanks to Eric, Sean, and Brian for an amazing time. And see Sean? I didn’t puke!
