One of those days!

Post by Timc »

I have been going up to the Loop for the past nine years, I've had good days and bad but yesterday will live long in the memory as it was all about the Raptor.
Still feels like it didn't happen and it may never be repeated but what a day!

Cheers
Tim

Lovely work Tim, arguably one of the best days ever at the Loop by the looks of it!

Great set.
Looks like the F-15E in number 15 has a light grey tail.
