The team over at Full Disc Aviation just dropped their latest blog post about our workshop at the Military Aviation Museum last month! Go check it out the great photos and writeup at:

It gives you a small sense of stepping back in time, looking out over a couple of patrolling WWII aircraft in beautiful formation, with the glorious blues of the ocean glistening below them. It was an experience worth treasuring for many years to come.

A lot goes into making an image like this possible...

Thanks to the Military Aviation Museum, their pilots, ground crews, volunteers and their executive staff for supporting our photographers and giving their best effort to ensure that aircraft were available and flown safely for the photoshoots.

Special thanks to Moreno Aguiari for always promoting 3G to the wider warbird community - without his advocacy for the 3G Photo Workshops, many of them would not have happened!

And of course, tons of thanks go out to our "Repeat Offender" photographer-customers, who even after having suffered through one of our events, they keep coming back for more. You all are the reason we do these events, and your continued support, excitement and friendship make all the long hours of planning, briefing and flying worthwhile!

3G Aviation Photography Workshops are back... Now let's see what exciting opportunities the rest of the year holds!

Jamie Hunter interviews our own 3G Instructor Doug Glover about Close Air Support and flying in the Marine Corps. If you haven't watched the Aviation BBQ yet, you are missing out! (and not just on a chance to laugh at Doug making a fool of himself, either!) 😁😎

Retired US Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornet weapons systems officer Doug Glover talks close air support, while also talking about his local South Carolina barbecue.

Certainly a lot of fun to think back on this event nearly a year ago during the IG Live interview today! Thanks to Diamond 9 Productions for putting this footage together for us.

As things are changing at the rapid rate with immigration policy, public health recommendations and people's tolerance for risk of exposure to COVID-19, the 3G event schedule has to flex. Please be patient, as all of us on the 3G team are working through impacts to our personal lives along with the changes to workshop scheduling.

SunN'Fun air-to-air (was 2 Apr): New "planned" dates for SunN'Fun are the first week of May. Thursday flying does not conflict with instructor schedule, but there may be a lack of military and warbird subjects. More to follow as the SunN'Fun organizers shift plans.

Marana AZ air-to-air (17 Apr): THIS EVENT IS STILL A GO! Obviously travel restrictions and the lack of "social distancing" on the CASA's ramp may make people not want to attend. Either way, unless travel is cancelled by government decree, 3G instructors currently plan to be in AZ for this event.

We wish we had better workshop news, but as for those who have scheduled workshops with us, we want to reiterate that as always (especially for these events and the unusual situations) 3G is prepared to fully refund your workshop price if you wish to cancel. We are also happy to apply that amount to a future event, as has been done for photographers' schedules changing in the past. We are a small business and cash flow is always a concern, but at the end of the day, it is your money and your lives that you entrust to the 3G team on these air-to-air events, and you should expect nothing less than the best customer service from us.

We hope to see every one of you this year on the flightline, when these events are past us!

Registration for our Marana, AZ air-to-air photography event on 17 April is open! Head over to our website and sign up to shoot vintage aircraft, and even some jets!

Icelanders tire of disrespectful influencers

Regardless of whether you shoot aviation or landscapes, photographers should learn how to be good stewards of their photography subjects.

Locals are frustrated at a number of cases where influencers have been disrespectful at tourist sites.
