Colombian teaser at Davis Monthan, plus some extras

Postby Bjorn van der Flier on Fri 06 Jul 2012, 7:04 am

First stop wat Tuscon International Airport, which we saw this recently though somewhat different painted Dutch F-16
Image

Then to DM where not least than 7!! BD A-10s arrives, with ferry tanks.
Image

Then this very welcome Nellis test bird, note the black wings underside
Image

Then Finally the Colombian B767 came in, the 707 remained at the platform together with 4 KFIRs
Image

And then when the KFIRs were still out, disaster struck when they changed runway direction, so we had to race to the other side of the airfield, and 5 minutes after arriving, EUREKA!!!!!
Image

Hope you liked them, log will follow the next upcoming days..

Thanks guys, was very happy when they showed up, even when the rumour started. They leave Friday and will go to the Red flag. So they are doing some training in the US...
Only it was a shame the 2 seater did not fly... :roll:

Wow, that Kfir looks great! I have to admit I prefer the low nose profile of the C12s though. The KC-767 looks fantastic as well. Very nice set of photos.
