Madras Dawn Patrol

@ Madras Municipal Airport, Oregon

August 2015

A dawn patrol of a very different sort begins to taxi towards the runway for an early morning Madras Air-to-Air Experience photo session.  The Mitsubishi A6M3 Reisen (Zero) comes from the Southern California Wing of the Commemorative Air Force.  The Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusa “Oscar” (center) and the Grumman F4F Wildcat (right) are part of the impressive Erickson Aircraft Collection located here at Madras Municipal Airport.  Nikon D7100 w/18-200mm, processing with Aperture and Aurora HDR.
