Dracula vs Shockwave

Shockwave, Dracula, Airshow, Race, Jet-Powered
“Dracula,” the aerobatic biplane, swoops in to race with “Shockwave,” the jet-powered Peterbilt semi. This scene, captured at EAA’s Airventure in Oshkosh, Wisconsin is played out at airshows across the United States.

The flashiest of this match up, of course, is Shockwave.  It is a semi truck outfited with three Westinghouse J34-48 jets that give it a total of 36,000 horsepower. Shockwave holds the world record for jet-powered full-sized trucks at 376 miles per hour!  The smoke, the flames, the roar and speed all make quite an impression…even more so at night.

Angel on Assignment

Jet, Clouds, F-22 Raptor, Raptor, F-22
A United States Air Force F-22 Raptor fighter jet is seen climbing against the backdrop of a tumultuous summer sky.

This photo the combination of an airshow performance, a setting sun and a billowing thunderhead in the distance. As the jet was quite a distance away, likely banking to return to the delighted airshow fans. The storm front was miles away, causing no threat but providing majestic beauty.  The setting sun colored the clouds in an orange-ish hue, making the scene more dramatic.

If you look real close, you can see the fire of the jet engines trailing the aircraft.  I’d like to have a better view of the Jet, but the real star in this shot is the sky. To see a larger version (and get a little better view of the jet) just click on the photo.

Winged Warrior Memoirs

Blue Angels, Grumman Tiger, F11, Jet, Navy, Military

This photo speaks of a bygone era of air combat.  The blue jet in the center of this image is a Grumman Tiger F11. This one sports the markings of the US Navy’s Blue Angels. It was flown by the Blue Angels in their 1968 season.

Alongside the Tiger, you’ll see a MiG-15 (black) and MiG-21 (silver) – all on display at the Combat Air Museum in Topeka, Kansas.

I won’t take a lot of space here to detail the distinguished history of these aircraft. Instead, let me direct you to the Combat Air Museum’s website where they have a great deal of information on these and other classic warbirds they proudly display…
