[MilCom] Columbus GA (KCSG) air show

[Mike Riffle]

This past weekend was the Columbus GA "Thunder in the Valley" air show.
I had to work the weekend shift so I missed it but I did catch some
arrivals while spotting on Thursday and Friday. The coolest catch for
me was finally seeing a flying V-22 "up close" (1/4 mile). Although
not related to the airshow, I also caught the arrival & departure of
two JUSTICE flights.
