Cad West 5 January 2022

Post by PeteFenwick »

Purely on the basis of a good met (sadly not as good as promised), needing an aviation fix and the need to try out a new camera body headed to the Mach Loop. Very quiet on Cad West in the morning but at lunchtime it got quite busy. Well 25 or so passes later (about half highish) and the USAF in numbers-F15C/F-15E/F35a and the Seymour Johnson Eagles a good day was had,

Sadly the light was a challenge hence not the best pics but a brief selection-

The weather and light may have been poor, but you've come home with some fine images. I love the snow-covered hills in the background.
Cheers,
