Very nice indeed!

I love the 'wolf, and the F-15 is an amazing piece of technology.

Took a very eerie picture of one flying into the murky weather at an airshow a few years ago..

Sweet Pic!!
Where did you shoot that and what zoom?


Hiya

It was at RAF Fairford in 2009, really crappy weather as you can see. I was using a Canon 1d MKIIn and a 100-400mm lens.

Two of my all time favorite aircraft, AC-130 and F-15 Eagle. My bro was career AF and went to Scott AFB every year for their open house. McDonnel/Douglas would send an F15 every year for a fly by. Seeing it go vertical and climb until it was out of sight was something I will never forget. Great watches. Logos are beautifully done.


Were you there in 1995? I flew the Canadian Hornet demo that year and Scott AFB was one of my stops.

Cheers

Unfortunately there is not a LE number. We had roughly between 28-32 persons. I'm assuming there were no numbers for the fact that I'm sure they will have more orders. BTW what Squadron?


We're a group of three squadrons actually, flying a Spec Ops variant of the C-130 (MC-130 Combat Shadow). Our LE Airwolf pic attached. I first heard of Brietling's LE program from my brother-in-law, a Strike Eagle Driver currently with the 334 FS. He participated in a group order of B1s (which I prefer over the Airwolf BTW). I attached a copy of his F-15 version, which is slightly different than your run. Which one do you like better?



334th huh. I'm at Shady J as well.
I'm over in Equipment Maint Squadron.
Our order was spread out over many F-15 "C" model bases.
At the time of this order I was in Saudi as a Maint Advisor.
I've seen those (B1's), I like them but prefer the Airowlf. Both nice pieces though!

My last year at the Open House was I believe 1992. My brother retired E9 soon after and moved to Florida !
