launchpad67a Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 (edited) Some of you know that I am a professional pyrotechnician in my spare time. Well aside from shooting major firework displays, I occasionally get to blow shit up at airshows. Today was the Arizona Skyfest in Prescott, AZ, where I live and I got called to help shoot the "simulated bombing runs" from a few planes. Pyro has become a major part of airshows in the past few years and it really adds to the excitement and reality. Anyhow, my friend shot some video from the spectator area of a few of our explosions, including the "500 Foot Wall of Fire", which is an awesome site and a scary thing to be right next to! Here's the edited video and a bunch of pics I took in between work. Enjoy !! ...........Simulated Bombing Runs Video.......... http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/1.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/2.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/3.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/4.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/5.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/6.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/7.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/8.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/9.jpg http://www.mikekreidel.com/temp/videos/airshow/10.jpg Edited October 1, 2006 by launchpad67a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
