The 52nd annual Chicago Air and Water Show occurred this past weekend and, unless you were out of town, you probably heard the noise as jets raced overhead over two afternoons. Hundreds of thousands of people hit the Lakefront - while no attendance has been announced yet, estimates are usually in the two million range - and many more took to rooftops all over the city to take in the sights and sounds of the annual event.
