'kin COOL!!!!!!!!
Sweet shots. I envy your access position! Lovely DOF in #1, the groudcrew in the background are saying "who, what, where, why" (in French, of course). BTW - What a waste of a backseat!

Great detail on all of the shots, oh for a decent digital camera, about 25 years ago!

On shot #2, I think that that might be a Mirage 2000 NG, rather than a Mirage III. The 2000 NG was developed from the III, which I know that you guys down under flew. Neverthess, still great shots.

Wonderful images. The F-16 and F-18 take-offs are awesome.

Can someone explain to me the rationale behind those garish paint jobs?

could be.. I thought it was just an updated III but there are a lot of differences if I look closer.

Thanks FA
