Nice series of shots. #s 12 & 13 look a bit dark.

Very nice pics. Always great to see another lifestyle.

I'm confused though. What's the difference between Vipers and Falcons?

[gkarris]

Love #10.

I've seen the C-5 at OSH, and the Atlas come in and go out of ORD all the time...

[12 Wyoming]

Nothing like the C5. Well maybe the B52 :D. I like big, fat, or long heavies. Thanks for bringing these shots to us!

nope, i'm just the guy who drives the bus ;)

thanks. looking at them in LR and then on here they darkened a bit and i agree either way they're too dark

Very nice pics. Always great to see another lifestyle.

I'm confused though. What's the difference between Vipers and Falcons?

no difference, it's just that the guys flying the F-16 don't call them "Falcons" they call it the Viper

[aviator.4.life]

Looks like a lot of fun.

[muppetdave]

Nice set there, #13 works really well. With a bit of jiggery-pokery it could look like something out of Star Wars!

[gjl711]

Dang but that's a spacious plane inside. :)

[hairy_moth]

Awesome airplanes. Nice shots too.
Every time there is one at an airshow I attend, I get in line to walk through it. :)

Looks like a lot of fun.

if you're not having fun, then you're doing something wrong....we always have fun!
