There was a Sea Dragon in the sky at Thunder!

Everybody got a good look at it.

No, not the mythical creature, the MH-53E Sea Dragon!

You know, the mine countermeasures variant of the CH-53 Super Stallion!

This one is even part of the Sea Dragons squadron!

I think they were lost.

There's no sea in Louisville, just the Ohio River.

Eventually they figured it out though.

the aviation nerd in me just hit overload. Superb these are. Captured some excellent shots. Bet you're happy with these

Ha, you should bring that aviation nerd to Thunder Over Louisville sometime. Thank you! Lol, even more so than I ordinarily would be, my autofocus was on the fritz and not cooperating with the jets so it was nice to have something slower moving to shoot.

If you want to indulge the nerd a bit more, this post has some more hardware from that same day (and in color).

Thank you! It was at an air show and flew back and forth a few times so I got to see all the different sides of it.
