In reply top Akron-Canton MAPS show? posted by Bill on Sun Jun 22, 2003 06:23:35 PM

Here's a few pics on webshots that I took with your average $200 digi camera...nothing too special

Anyhow the POF birds were there (isn't that enough?) and some T6/SNJ's, a Stearman, Mustang, B17, & A-10's

This year the active was runway 1, therefore the hill I stood on was at the departure end. Last year they used 19, so the planes would come directly overhead about 100 ft. This year they were higher as they generally pulled up after a low pass before getting to my spot, but when the B17 took off (several times, giving rides)it would go directly overhead at 150' or so. Just awesome.
