Douglas C-47 Skytrain at Air Show San Diego 2014 (03:09)

Here is a World War 2 era Douglas C-47 Skytrain flying at Air Show San Diego in El Cajon on Sunday, June 8, 2014. The old bird put on a good display during the air show. Sorry for the out of focus part on the first pass...I'm getting used to using the autofocus on my 70D. Apparently it isn't good enough to track fast moving objects in front of a contrast-free sky. So I guess I still need to manually focus or at least lock the focus during certain situations.
