Nellis, Red Flag 13-3 UPDATED

Post by hans antonissen »

Just got back from a week Nellis AFB. It was a nice flag although not everything showed up. Weather was sunny all week. Takeoff s were in the early afternoon and recoveries in the late afternoon untill sunset.
Here are some first impressions, will post some more later.

Grtz,

Hans

Great set, the UAE Mirage looks so bad ass with three tanks and a targeting pod.

Great set, hopefully I'll get the opportunity to go back for a Red Flag 14 :-).

Just a quick query, I note you have a shot of the UAE M2000 from on base. During 13-2 there was a complete embargo on any shots being published from on base where the UAE were the main subject.

Have they lifted it now?

@epic, some shots were taken during mediaday, some during EOR-visit day later.

@andy, yes the ban was lifted to my surprise, maybe because they were Green Flaggers this time?

Hans, thanks. YouTube has a nice video of a mass launch shot on media day during this Flag.
