Stumbled over this on youtube today. Some great timelapse video of the boneyard included in the show.

On a side note, I'm itching for the Australian Airshow at Avalon in Feb/Mar Already confirmed that the F22 is returning along with F16s from the US and Singapore (2 of the Black Knights display team) and a lot of WW1 aircraft will be coming from NZ.

What lenses did you use for these shots?
I have the 70-3300 canon L lens.
What settings are best?
I usually shoot prop planes and like to blur the propeller so it looks like it's flying, but that blurs the plane sometimes.

Very nice first post, Stahlhelms. Welcome to CR.

Thanks, I have a few more from the Reading WWII Weekend Air Show...
I'm still learning all the 'tricks' to getting better shots.
I have some really clear shots of planes, but the propellers are 'frozen in time' and I am trying to slow the shutter to get them blurred without blurring the whole picture....not easy for me at this time.
