Cad West, 07/05/13. F15D head on *2 more added*
Thought I would share my attempts from 2 hours on Cad West in the afternoon, first trip of the year for me. I only arrived in the car park at 13:30 after the 200mile drive, but well well worth it. Thanks for the company guys, you know who you are, as a nice way to spend a spare afternoon.
The flying today was awesome. Not your usual passes that are expected from Cad West, but expertly done. My ears are still ringing!

WOW..........
Stunning angles there and they are so darn sharp, could you drop me a PM and let me know some details about equipment and settings.
Cheers Mike

Fantastic shots, all of them.
1 and 4 are particularly good.
Great head-ons.
Is that an AN/ALQ-188 on the centreline of shot 1 and 4?
Don't think I've seen that before!

I haven't got a clue what is on the centreline of the F15D. Can see it in 1, 2 and 4 but haven't got a clue what it is. And tbh, I wouldn't know a AN/ALQ-188 was if it hit me in the face?
I'm glad you liked them

Yes it is, it's also known as a "Gecko" pod because of it's shape, it is an electronic attack training system for air combat.
