Cracking set - I was wondering if Wiley Sike would get some good action but it looks like they put on a good low fly display for you - were you in the east compound layby?
There should be a few shots coming up of action from within the range area later. It was hoped that the Apache would be flying the gorge in the late morning but I think that got cancelled due to low cloud at that time - fortunately it cleared up for the afternoon slot. Great setting sun and Chinook shot!

Chinook in front of the sunset is pretty tasty!
