Sun N Fun Fly In 2006

Every year in April, the second biggest Fly-In/Airshow in the United States is held in Lakeland Florida. For the past five years I have gone as a volunteer working on the Warbird Ramp. This year there was a great collection of aircraft ranging from homebuilts to the newest USAF fighter the Raptor F-22. Every afternoon there is an airshow that lasts three hours. I took numerous photos during the airshows as well as pictures of the planes parked on the ground. The only plane you could not walk right up to and touch was the F-22 Raptor. This was it's first show at a civilian airfield, but you could still get within about 30 feet of it. Click on the thumb nail to enlarge and press the F11 key on your keyboard for a larger screen.
