1 C-130 "Fat Albert"
3 Extra 300/330 from John Klatt, Sean Tucker, and Michael Goulian
2 MXS/MX2 from John Klatt and Rob Holland
1 Pitts S-1 from Skip Stewart
1 Jet Waco from John Klatt
1 Piper Seneca
1 Piper Arrow
6 Black Hawks
The rest would fill up a topic of their own. If you ever get the chance, the Thursday before your local air show is the day to really see the jet teams (T-birds/Blue Angels) spend a lot of time in the air. Saw a total of 3 1/2 hours of Blue Angels today alone and spoke to some of them and the other air show pilots. "All you have to do is ask . . . " - a bunch of people giving me the same advice and me finally listening. Great day today and 3 more to go . . . tired.

Re: Aircraft you spotted today
This is not so recent-ish, so please ignore my violation of the topic name.
So a month ago, my parents dragged me to the beach so they could exercise without me camping at home and spamming my com. So they forced me to do my homework/revision for my 'O's (which is in 25 days, btw) while they were away. Since the beach is quite close to Changi Airport, I decided to take note of the aircraft on final approach.
1x AirAsia A321
1x SIA A380
4x SIA 777/A350
1x Silkair A319
1x BA 767/777
12x aircraft that I couldn't see blast myopia i should get binoculars for this
Then,
Did I mention it was National Day?
I got 2 more images, both of which weren't so good. Reckoned it was flying below 500ft.
I'm not a nationalistic person, but hey, pride and all, in 1 moment.
It eventually came back going the other way, escorted by 2 Apaches. Sadly I couldn't get an image cos I was in the toilet...

Re: Aircraft you spotted today
I saw several interesting types today, including a B-25, 17 North American T-6 Texans, 4 T-28 Trojans, and a TBM Avenger, but the real kicker was the only flying Sea Harrier FA2.

Re: Aircraft you spotted today
Anyhow, I spotted somewhere around 5-10X UH-60/AH-64/OH-58/CH-47... Same traffic I've been spotting for the past 7 years. Oh, I also spotted a Lear35 and a Lear45 on approach.
