jmel Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 The ANG Viper Commanders Conference was held in Ft. Worth last week. Each unit, except for Minnesota and Michigan, brought at least one jet for a massive photoshoot. Several jets had new markings applied for the occasion, and many jets had brand-spanking-new paintjobs. A full article and a lot of pics are on my website. Jake Link to post Share on other sites

jester292 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Why weren't MI and MN there? Just curious as I am from Michigan, and love the Red Devils vipers! Link to post Share on other sites
stubinpsu Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) Those are some great shots. Love the 115th Wisconsin ANG airplane- the "motion W" homage to the University of Wisconsin is classic. Edited November 23, 2005 by stubinpsu Link to post Share on other sites

stubinpsu Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hey Jake. We need to talk!! I just visited the Twobobs website to see what you guys have in terms of F-16 ANG decals. I think some sheets for these airplanes would sell very well. Link to post Share on other sites
Dan 88 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Those are some sweet looking Vipers. I have a feeling Twobobs might be making these Vipers. Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Middleton Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hey Jake. We need to talk!! maybe we can get the VT ones then? Jake, as posted in the Afterburner Decals thread, outstanding photos and article! Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 Why weren't MI and MN there? Just curious as I am from Michigan, and love the Red Devils vipers! Weather. A squall line rolled through that part of the country Tuesday evening. Although their jets stayed put at home, both Commander's made it down to Texas via airlines. Thanks, guys! It was a blast being down there, and a HUGE privelege. Jake Link to post Share on other sites
ThePhantomTwo Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) I noticed they finally put the "Indy" back on Col. Hauser's jet,last time I saw it they hadn't added it after the new paint job.Kudo's on a great article and FANTASTIC pics Jake!

g0_command0 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I wonder if Minnesota ANG F-16's are still operating the QRA in California? Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Middleton Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I wonder if Minnesota ANG F-16's are still operating the QRA in California? MN did an alert site in CA? I know they did, or still do, pull alert at Tyndall AFB in Florida, but never heard of them in CA Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Middleton Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 woops, i was thinking of Montana I know Montana at one time pulled alert at Davis Monthan in Arizona. For some reason I think North Dakota may have pulled alert at March AFB many moons ago (they are now at Langley) Link to post Share on other sites

Mike J. Idacavage Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Hi Jake, FANTASTIC photos!! I tend to prefer the ANG birds over the straight USAF aircraft so the photos you posted in this forum really get my attention. I may have missed this, but what is the link to your web site? I would love the opportunity to pick up a CD of the walkarounds from you! Mike Yep. Have you been to my site?
