This was part of a shoot with the RAAF 3 Sqn and a visiting F15 squadron from Kadena AFB. We took two F18s and two F15s and went for a tour shooting around various landmarks.

One of the first F/A-18 E/F Super Hornets with VFA122. I shot this during the time they were also training all the instructors so the squadron had not become operational at that time.

Grabbed a few shots of this F117 during a flight I did as part of a Capstone firepower demo at Nellis AFB.

Its always fun when you have aircraft tucked in tight, allows you to get some cool shots.

Ned,

I have to admit to being slightly jealous, some lovely shots there fella, thank you for sharing.
Let's face it, you wouldn't be on this forum if you didn't like this!!

By putting my mouse on a picture selection arrows came up either side enabling a whole series with each post. The girls in #1 were quite pleasant.
