The Computer Thug Airshow Photo Gallery

B-17 Flying Fortress

Boeing B-17E Flying Fortress

The elegant B-17, taken at the Quad Cities Air Show in Davenport, Iowa in 1992. The very first time I saw a B-17 in flight, a very memorable moment for me.

All About My Airshow Photo Gallery:

All the photos were taken by me, while attending various local airshows around the Iowa area. I usually set the shutter speed as high as it will go, to get the best "freeze" of a moving subject. That is about the extent of my knowledge of cameras - I'd be lost if the camera didn't automatically select the best aperture to go with the shutter speed. The equipment I used was:

  1. Canon AE-1 Program 35 mm camera
  2. Vivitar 200x Zoom telephoto lens
  3. Misc. filters, based on lighting conditions
  4. Generic store-brand 400 speed film

I want to extend special thanks to:

  1. My Dad, for loaning me the use of his expensive Camera!
  2. My Dad again, for loaning me the use of his EZ Photo scanner.
