Day at the airshow...

I was at the airshow that I was telling you about today. We were there for the sole purpose to rescue and put out the fire in the event that a plane went down. That's it! No medical, nothing else... except one other thing.

I was one of the few people that got to stand near the old war planes when they started, since there age makes them prone to fires on start up. So there I was in my full turnout gear with my extinguisher at the ready. But nothing happened. Nothing all day happened. I just got to sit back and watch the show, and of course I took some pictures for all my loyal readers!

One of the coolest things I got to see what the new airport fire engine, or Jaguar as its named. This thing can go up to 80 mph VERY QUICKLY! It uses a master stream nozzle on the end of a elephant like trunk that it controlled by the F18 control stick in the cockpit! It was awesome... there are pics of that in there as well!

But other then that, there were a few cool planes and a cool Reach helicopter, but that's about it.

Well... until next time!
