Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

USA trip Part III Red Flag 14-1

Post by joan le poole »

Hello all,

Finally I found some time to show you some images taken at Nellis AFB during Red Flag 14-1. We have been there at Monday and Tuesday, February 3 and 4.

Monday had the best light conditions but Tuesday the mission was bigger, so we scored some additional aircraft.

1. Let's kick of with the Thunderbirds.
Image

2. I scored several new (flying) aircraft types, like the F-15
Image

3. I only had one flying Tornado GR4 in my live.
Image

4. New to me was the Australian Air Force as well.
Image

5. Light conditions were not that good at Tuesday. However, this is a nice aircraft.
Image

6. This is a nice experience :)
Image

7.
Image

8.
Image

9. This US Army heli crossed above us.
Image

10. New to me was the B-2 stealth bomber
Image

11. And the F-22 Raptor
Image

12.
Image

13. I have seen my first Growlers
Image

14. Awesome light :)
Image

15. The difference in size between the F-15 and F-16
Image

16. And a final image

More will been uploaded to our website soon.

Thanks for watching. Part IV will show some images taken during our stay at Luke AFB.

Thanks for the compliments.
@Sowald: these pictures are all taken off base at the location called The Speedway. Drive down the Las Vegas Blvd north bound. When you passed the base the Las Vegas Motor Speedway appears on your left side. Park on the left side of the way, and enjoy !
