Hi, Racer,
Since you mentioned the Concorde, here are 4 of the Concorde from the same airshow. They actually flew an airshow routine at Oshkosh. It was subsonic, of course, since it was over the US. Nevertheless, if you were willing to pay $400, you could fly on the Concorde during its routine, and after take-off, while preparing to begin their performance, they'd take you up to Canada for a supersonic leg, just so you could say that you had done it. They replaced the normal American airshow announcers with a dedicated British Airways Concorde team who talked about the "bumps & circuits" (American translation: touch and go's) that the aircraft would perform during the routine. I particularly like the last picture here because, while taken from the ground, it looks like it was taken at altitude. Awesome sight!

For my last significant birthday SWMBO bought me a flight in this beauty, dating from the 1930s. Barring the takeoff and landing I was able to take the controls for the majority of the flight.

Two more photos of HAF F-16s. Both are shot with my K-5IIs the first one with the DFA 150-450 and the second with my Bigma 50-500. You can see larger versions on my Flickr by clicking on the pictures.
