Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force James A. Cody visited Travis AFB,
Calif., July 9-11, 2014. During his tour of the 60th Air Mobility Wing, 621st Contingency Response Wing and the 349th Air Mobility Wing, Cody discussed improvements of the enlisted performance reports, and the important role frontline supervisors' have in making the evaluation process one that helps all Airmen meet their potential. Additionally, Cody emphasized that in 2015 the U.S. Air Force will have fewer Airmen than it has since 1947, making dedication, innovation and strong leadership more important than ever.

It's always good to plan contingency when going out on photographic trips, just incase any primary goals prove impossible. This one evening, I joined friends from Melbourne Photographic Society on a trip to nearby Kegworth with the aim of photographing descending aeroplanes crossing the motorway as they followed their final approach to East Midlands Airport.
Just as we arrived however, we discovered that the planes had been rerouted and would be barely visible from our location. No bother, we'd identified a backup plan - shooting light trails over the motorway. We just had to recompose, adjust camera settings and start capturing long exposures.
