Ventured down to take a look at F16 Falcons from the USAF Thunderbirds complete their final practice before taking part in an airshow in the northern Australian city of Townsville. It would have been superb if not for a massive dust storm that has swept across eastern Australia over the past 5 days. Visibility was very limited and it really spoiled the opportunity for some cracking photos. Anyway, was still good fun, worth the effort. Anyway, knocked up this quick video to give you an idea of what we saw. You can either view here or click the blue title at the top of the video to view in 1280×720 HD on the Vimeo.com site.

Would have been a good video if it wasn’t for the dust. Maybe we could have seen more of the planes and less of the camera man.

Nope i have to agree with Greg more planes less of the bloke that should’ve been behind the camera not in front.
Did you get any still shots.
