Great pics Eddie! Love the weathering on that last one. :P

Nice moment to catch the photo too...with the building logo in there too :D

When you watch 200 F-16 taxi all day... you start to notice things like that. :thumbsup:

Thanks. I have lots of photos to add... so look for more soon. Shots with Red Flag signs and crew members.

Eddie, forgot to reply sooner - those are excellent shots

Ralph, very nice - I like them all, and the first one in the shelter is unique - it looks like a deployed location

Oh and that last one - just noticed the vapor inside the intake :salute:

I only have one shot of an F-16... but maybe the weathering is a bit extreme?

*runs away*

Which Viper is this? Is this the Aviano jet shot down in 1999? I wasn't aware of any other pieces of it besides the tail that were on display.

This was taken in Belgrade at the War Museum in 2000, a week before the Milosevic-removing election. The plane was shot down during Allied Force, yeah... I think the other parts (tail, I think engine too) are at the Aviation Museum at Nikola Tesla airport. F-117 parts are similarly split up - an aileron is at the War Museum, canopy at the Aviation museum. There's other stuff inside, too, at the War Museum - A-10 engine cowling and some other stuff - parts of some fighter pilot's flight suit (I can't remember, I think the inscription said it was French...) and other such things.

Michel, those are great F-16 shots as well. I see you are using the D50 - what lens are you using? I see a fairly long focal length.

Nice work

Thanks for the comment. I'm using the Sigma 50-500mm.
