Thunder over the Valley Airshow 2012

AUGUST 25, 2012 - SANTA MARIA, CALIFORNIA - 168 IMAGES (CANON 1D MARK III)

The 2012 Thunder over the Valley Santa Maria Airshow was set to be a really grand event, but cancellations and delays forced the show to condense the performances down to a small few. But even with the lack of performers, the Marines and Navy sent out two Super Hornets and three Ospreys which performed spectacular demos on the Saturday show! An impressive collection of warbirds also highlighted the show.
