Really happy to bag these guys during the brief deployment to Lakenheath. It's fair to say that one or two pilots were playing to the gathered masses at the Forestry entrance. Simply awesome breaks into the circuit. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47831629392_5e73b2a1f4_o.jpg F-16C 88-0405 RAF L...

Two highlights during a brief visit to Prestwick for the Joint Warrior 19-1 visitors. My main aim was to bag the VP-4 P-8A which I did in the early evening light but the undoubted highlight was Danish Air Force 976 which came in for a splash of fuel. https://live.staticflickr.com/7810/46826884054_4c...

A picture heavy selection of shots from the Miramar Show from back in September. Not many flying display shots as it is backlit most of the day. Lots of nice static though and the storage/parking areas were within range also. Static https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4815/31782499057_cf17487907_o.jpg FA...

Thank you. All of the images were taken from outside. They were taken from the car park of the Yuma County Fairgrounds.

Dinger.

Thankfully I opted to attend on the Saturday of the MCAS Cherry Point Show weekend as the Sunday was delayed by thunder storms. Not as much on static display as the 2016 show but some nice stuff regardless. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7872/44653686190_77913e1d3d_o.jpg AH-1W 164575 MCAS Cherry Poi...

Arriving mid afternoon after spending the morning at El Centro, I was hopeful that I might get some locals along with some WTI traffic. Here is a sample of what I photographed in no particular order. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4891/45713571784_2288425165_o.jpg EA-18G 168765 MCAS Yuma 2 WM by Kev...

C-37A 01-0065 from the 15th Wing's 65th Airlift Squadron from Hickam made a very rare stop over in the UK this week at Stansted.

The gamble paid off by visiting Lakenheath this morning in the hope that AC-130J 12-5772 'HELLS BELLE' might move. It duly obliged and departed from runway 24 just before 1030. Hopefully the first of many to visit or transit through the UK. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1732/28539900728_be0b7cf91b_...
