great pics. Caught the evening FOD walkdown on film.
My favorite part is it says Air Force in English, and very daintily...Interesting and "original" paint scheme....hmmm where have I seen this paint job before? This is their newly developed Saeqeh aircraft , which in loose translation means "Thunderbolt". Brief info of their new fighter plane. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HESA_Saeqeh It looks like an F-5 and an F/A-18 had a baby.
Huh, given the time frame I thought they may have been doing filming on the destruction of the Death Star? Guess not.
To continue w/ the Maintainer theme (and stop the jet madness)...
Pic 1: My LPO obviously not impressed w/ the work being done.
Pic 2: Foreign DLQs...actually bringing the CO over to the "battle group's" commander. Bonus points if you can name the class of ship.
Pic 3: What happens when the XO doesn't secure his gear.

It'll look even better with a TD box around it and a "Shoot" cue.
It looks like they just put two vertical stabs on instead of one, *shrug*.
Nothing like a brand new 2nd gen fighter. Can only polish a turd so much.
I wonder if he's really going flying with the screens over the intakes?Interesting and "original" paint scheme....hmmm where have I seen this paint job before?

In keeping with the maintainers theme... here's a start-up scene from NAS Miramar, early 1975. VF-21 F-4J on the ramp east of Hangar 1.
Is that the ass end of a NC-5? Be still my heart....
On reflection, no. It's not tall enough...

That's the whole point Flugelman.....that's what they WANT you to believe...
More for the maintainers and then some...
More to come.. just need to dig them outta the photo box and scan them.
