I have lots of airshow photos, many of them slides taken back in the 80s and 90s. I posted a couple of airshow shots over in the "Show your film Pentax" thread, but I didn't want to post any more, since they would be off topic. But I thought I'd go ahead and share some more in the right thread. So anyway, back in those days I was shooting with either Canon or Nikon. I didn't start shooting with Pentax on more than an occasional manner until several years ago. And all my Pentax gear is film based, so . . .
This first one is a shot of a Blue Angels A4 Skyhawk at rest. I believe the Blue Angels transitioned to F/A-18s in 1988, so this shot was from 1987 or earlier. Sigma 600mm f/8 mirror, Canon F-1 most likely. Film is probably Kodachrome 64.
Blue Angels in A4s, formation. Probably the same airshow as above. The lens used was most likely a Tamron SP 60-300mm zoom.
Blue Angels in F/A-18s, taken probably in 1990 or 1991. Nikon F3, Tamron 300mm f/2.8 LDIF. Fujichrome 100.
Supermarine Spitfire Mark ?? Fujichrome 100. I don't recognize the nationality of the roundels. Israel maybe?
