Eglin AFB Airshow


Recommended Posts

Yes Ken, I actually got to go in the AC-130, I didn't take any pics though, but it was really cool anyways. Pretty cramped quarters in there for sure.

The crowds were very loose until the afternoon. I actually have never had an easier time getting into an airshow other than last weekend at NAS JRB. In FL my wife and I went on vacation without the kids (for the first time ever) and she dropped me off right at the enterance to get searched (she decided to shop and lay on the beach, while I was at the show), can't ask for any better stuff than that!

Glad I'm keeping you occupied Ves!

Thanks Gregg and Holmes for the kind words.

Thanks for the HIP shots. Gotta love the IR Baffles on the Spectre. Wondering why AFSOCs MC-130s and our HC-130s don't have them, especially considering the mission profile. I would think it would help the DIRCM/LAIRCM.

Sure wish you had 45 off the nose shot of the HIP, or a close up of the hoist.

Thanks again!

I am new to the forum. I found it while doing research to identify this helicopter. We were on a boat cruise at Fort Walton Beach and saw two of them flying by.
