The feature act at the 1998 Lethbridge Airshow was the Thunderbirds. Most of my pictures were taken on Friday, August 7 outside the airport during the Thunderbirds practice.

Here are the rest of my thumbnails of the US military partcipation at Lethbridge '98:
C-2 Greyhound
Three C-2 Greyhounds arrived at Lethbridge throughout the day on Friday. One had an engine fire
en route and had to shut it down prior to landing. The third photo below is a shot of this
aircraft on landing approach. It is not immediately obvious because I was using 400-speed film, but
the right engine on the aircraft with '50' on the nose can be seen to be shut down. The other two
aircraft were on static display.

This C-5 came from Travis AFB, California. They provided a few flybys before and after the show. They
also transported two HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopters to the airshow.
