Flying Through the Fall
S ome of the largest and best known airshows in North
America take place in late summer and early fall. We are
talking about airshows like the Abbotsford International
Airshow in British Columbia, Canada; the Canadian
International Air Show in Toronto, Ontario, Canada; the
historic Cleveland National Air Show in Cleveland, Ohio; the
NAS Oceana Air Show in Virginia Beach, Virginia; and the
MCAS Miramar Air Show in San Diego, California. Our team
of photo contributors captured some incredible images from
these shows and many more, and you will find the best of their
photos over the next several pages.
As always, we receive many more great photographs that we
just don’t have room for in print. So, to check out even more
great images from our team, visit our online galleries at www. Capt. Melanie “MACH” Kluesner demonstrates the capabilities of the F-35 Lightning II
