Sorry I've been away for so long... The past two months have been extremely busy as we travelled to RIAT and the UK for 3 weeks including a quick trip to Paris to see MUSE at the Eiffel Tower! wohoo! what a blast that was. Then a couple weeks after that put us in Hillsboro Oregon to see the special painted Oregon ANG 75th anniversary F-16! Mr Tom/RIAT Air Ops... you'll be glad to know that the Eagle is to remain in the special paint for another year... So RIAT 2017 for the USAF 70th? Lastly just the other day we were at the Abbotsford Arrivals/Rehearsals day. Next week I'm off to Nellis AFB for Red Flag 16-4 so there will be a post about that as well in the very near future. For now please enjoy some of the shots I was able to get at these two locations.

Re: Hillsboro and Abbotsford airshow arrivals and rehearsals
Nice selection in great weather by the looks. That Eagle is really something but I also really like the Tw'Otter and that Murphy is probably the finest homebuild - everrr... Love it.
You caaan't trust the system... Maaan!

Superb collection of shots with lots of colour evident, Especially that blue around the aircraft?
PS:- When do we get to see (quote) "the special painted Oregon ANG 75th anniversary F-16?"
