The First two days of the show for real have passed and they were two very different days. \u00a0The funny thing is they both started off with a run and kicking off my step goal before 9am on Monday and before 10am on Tuesday (not sure why there was an hours difference when I probably did as much walking either day). \u00a0Pretty awesome few days with Monday spent all day in and out of press conferences and other random explorations, while Tuesday was more of a me day with lots of spotting, time in the sun watching the airshow and just chilling out.<\/p>\n
The swag haul has been pretty epic with USB drives galore, baggage tags, and heaps of other goodies, but the winner so far has to go to Cessna. They gave me the most amazing pen and leather notebook binder. \u00a0The Pen is just beautiful so that may just become my new daily pen at work. \u00a0Out of all the other random swag there has been a good range of goodies and the usual expectations, but apparently I can get a 3D printed thing from GE, so I must find that.<\/p>\n
Of the air displays I have seen so far, the Harrier on Tuesday was by far the loudest thing I have EVER heard in my life. \u00a0Seriously it was just freaking insane! \u00a0Loud as all hell but watching it hover and doing compass turns about 10-15ft in the air… AWESOME! \u00a0The most disappointing display though had to of been “Jetman” he was doing it so damn high that even with my 500mm lens he was to high to even get a focus, let alone keep track of him.<\/p>\n
Back at show for more press stuff today but should get the afternoon for more me time, we shall see!<\/p>\n
