Week of the Eagles Air Show 2007
Well this last weekend the Week of the Eagles included an Air Show. They had re-enactments, displays and everything from WWII up to the present day. It was hot but we had a lot of fun and Brandon loved all the planes, tanks, and helicopters.

Brandon thought the Vietnam helicopters were a lot of fun
Daddy and Brandon in front of another helicopter
Then he got to see where the gunner would sit during Vietnam
Then it was mom's turn......
Aren't I stylin'??????
WWII Air Assault re-enactment. We learned that during the war, foot soldiers got paid a whopping $21 a month but if you were a parachute jumper you got paid $50 a month!!!! Over double the pay to float into enemy territory!!!!!!
They had a bunch of different aircraft out on display and Brandon loved this plane. He got to see what the cargo area was like and then...........
He got to play pilot and play with the controls in the cockpit!!!!!
Some demonstrators performed a free fall jump. The pink smoked showed you where they were and how fast they were falling. At the last minute they would open their chute and land to safety

What a day!!!!!!
What a day!!!!!!
