MCAS Yuma

Post by shaggy101 »

Last set from me from the tour of the US, there were a few museums as I well but I'll leave those on my flickr pages. This base is right up there with the best base I have ever visited, so much variety from just the home team but & a couple of nice visitors rocked up as well

The rest of the set are on flickr & my facebook page as usual.

The next day we were due to go to the MCAS Miramar air show but we ended up at March ARB instead, there wasn't much flying but there was this little gem :D

Great road trip set here , certainly put the miles in
The SU27 markings on the F5 are smart

Are the Americans fairly cool over spotting ?

They had no problems where we were at all. The only slight issue was at Tucson ANGB where we parked up next to a Raytheon area so a couple of their security guys came down. But even they were pretty friendly.

Thanks for the nice comments as well :cool:

Excellent images. My favourites are the Hercules shots with perfect propeller discs.
