I only can post 2 at a time. So here are 2 other photos of the show at airforcebase Volkel. The pilot of the orange F-16 with the flares is Captain Ralph Aarts. Next year he won`t participate in the F-16 demo team anymore. Pity.

That's a cool Orange F-16. Now if the ones that fly over my house would paint them up like that it would be even more fun! Cruddy grey skies, cruddy grey paint...

These are both very nice!!

Wish our AF would allow Demo teams to paint 'em up but they're all still considered active duty aircraft so no dice. The best thing is they let the A-10 teams have nice shiny 30mm gun collars.

If you link your images from a different host (Flickr, SmugMug, PBase, etc...) you can embed eight images in a thread. (Hint, Hint...)

Use the yellow box with the mountain symbol to link the images and not the Paperclip to attach them. ;)

That's the point... Make them hard to see.

You really want the demo team aircraft painted like that? Yuck! I like the paint schemes of the Thunderbirds and the Blue Angels, but I would cringe to see F-16's, 18's or F-22's "tarted up" (to use a term on another thread) like that.

Love the first shot. Have you thought about maybe cloning out the clouds on top? Very nice either way...

I meant the East Coast Viper, West Coast Viper, East Coast A-10, etc...

Not the official demonstration squadrons. BAs and TBirds paint schemes are legendary classics!
