During my visit to the 2007 Cape Girardeau Regional Air Festival I was very fortunate to meet and photograph the US Navy's East Coast Super Hornet (aka the Rhino) Demonstration Team from Strike Fighter Squadron 106 based out of Naval Air Station Oceana, Virginia.
This gallery is a photo essay of the time I spent with the team and hopefully gives a “behind the scenes” look at the demo team as they prepare, fly and recover from the airshow demonstration they flew at Cape Girardeau.
A BIG thanks goes out to the Rhino team that came to the Cape Girardeau show:
LT John "TC" Desplinter LT Matt "SHILOC" Morton LT Stacy "Stigs" Foley LT Josh "JTITA" Hammond
The maintenance crew for this show was: AO2 (AW/SW) Charles Hudson AT2 (AW) Larry Pitzer AN Christopher Rodriguez
