We had the annual Osan Air Show this weekend. Now, under normal circumstances it’s only a so so endeavor. I mean, this is Korea after all. They have a few fighters zip around for awhile, some random fly bys of whatever they can scrape up out of Japan and Guam and here on the penninsula, and a smattering of Army equipment and South Korean aircraft. The highlight is the Black Eagles, a Korean stunt team akin to the Blue Angles or Thunderbirds that you’ll see back in the United States. They fly T-37′s and generally put on a decent show, although I wouldn’t call it anything particularily special.

Unfortunately, our short little dictatorial friend up north decided to literally drop the bomb last week and test a nuclear device. This resulted in a bunch of cancellations for our Air Show. Do I think it was intentional on North Korea’s part? Did they blow up a tiny little bomb just to show they can put an end to Osan’s yearly spectacle whenever they want? I’m no expert, but it’s entirely possible. Jerks.

I went and wandered around anyway and took a few pictures. As it turns out, I had my camera set to some ridiculous settings from the last time I was screwing around with it, that made all my pictures come out overexposed and blue tinted. I tried to correct it as best I could on the computer. You can’t really tell since the pictures I put on this website are so small, so it’s not that bad.

Also, I was looking around the picture gallery earlier and realized it was horribly disorganized and hard to find stuff in, so I broke down and rearranged everything into chronological order. Better? I dunno, but it makes me happy.
