1447.0. "Air Show Pics" by MTWAIN::MACDONALD (WA1OMM Listening 52.525) Mon May 30 1988 22:39

    I videotaped the Pease AFB airshow over the weekend. I took a few
    scenes directly from videotape and digitized them in B&W on the
    Amiga. They make pretty good printouts for office decoration! They
    can be found on PAULY"AMIGA"::
    
    A10.PIC         A pair of A-10 "Tank Killers" a few moments after
                    take-off
    
    B1B.PIC         A B-1B strategic bomber (first New England appearance)

    ANGEL5.PIC      Blue Angels in tight formation (F/A-18 Hornets)

1447.2PostscriptMTWAIN::MACDONALDWA1OMM Listening 52.525Tue May 31 1988 09:493
    I've uploaded the Postscript variants (filetype .PS) to the same
    directory. You can copy them to your system and print them directly
    to a Postscript printer.
1447.3neat showWJG::GUINEAUTue May 31 1988 09:5810

I was there on Saturday... (In fact ther were some people with video gear,
Maybe we met?)

What a show!  Those Blue Angels are pretty daring pilots.  Just Like seeing
stars through a telescope, they just aren't real till you see them in person...

1447.4Tool for viewing?RBW::WICKERTMAA DIS ConsultantTue May 31 1988 20:217
    
    Is there a tool to view these files (IFF files I assume, right?)
    that is either bundled with the system or is public domain?
    
    Thanks,
    Ray
1447.5Thanx 4 Pix.THEONE::PARSONSDown-under computing...Tue May 31 1988 23:014
    Thanks for those Postscript pictures, they're not too bad if you
    squint a bit, and not bad at all considering the processing steps
    between real life and a bit of paper on my wall 10,000 miles away.

1447.6Animations and Last CallMTWAIN::MACDONALDWA1OMM Listening 52.525Fri Jun 10 1988 09:346
    Last call for these pics. They will be deleted over the weekend.
    I'll replace them with Thunderbird pics from the Hanscom Air Show.
    I should have one or two animations available too including a Harrier
    taking off vertically.
