Viper, Venoms, and Hueys ..... and only three people showed up to view them. Gotta wonder about northern Nevada aircraft enthusiasts; a Marine military "air show" and no one bothers to attend. Spotters around here are a joke!
Very nice catch, Gary!
As you know, the LAST RAR will be this Sept, so I would expect aficionados to flood the KRTS site.
Glad you were there to capture these Marine Choppers.
Really a nice shot and your own private air show.

Excellent lift here,,this happened to me at RDD a few years back and I was the only one snapping and video..I even got the Wing Commander standing next to his Chop....Im sure he has moved on now and another Wing Commander is in charge but I got a great blast of rotor wash when they departed back then....
