12 years since my best ever day on base. Something I doubt will ever be bettered, TBH. EOR during a Red Flag mission launch that included F-111s, F-117s, EA-6s, B-2, F-22s when they were still new and exciting, and plenty of colourful stuff, too.
The 65th AGRS operated the F-15C/D in the Aggressor role from Nellis AFB until its inactivation in September 2014.
Tragically, this aeroplane, along with its pilot, Lt. Col. Thomas "Moses" Bouley (one of two on board; a RAF exchange pilot ejected and survived), were lost in an accident on 30th July 2008. While executing a planned manoeuvre during a Red Flag 08-3 mission, the aeroplane departed from controlled flight and entered a spin from which recovery proved impossible. Lt Col Bouley ejected late and his parachute failed to inflate fully before he impacted the terrain.
A fabulous scene of these birds flying across the sea. I like the red flag waving on the shoreline . Soft hues and a splash of red...

A pair of Langley Raptors hanging off our wing during an incredibly frustrating (photographically) first tanker ride 13 years ago today....
the RAF placed a squadron of Typhoons and an MRTT at Nellis for this exercrise...and I understand Australia also added some Growlers...
The sea was very choppy and the red flag was flying, giving a warning that it was dangerous to swim in the sea.

No-one walking at all, just so lovely and quiet after most people have gone home.

Florida had sunshine, swamp water, and kayfabe.
She learned all three early.
Here…she was looking for something older.

Some friends ask what you’re doing tonight. Mom’s showed up with a car full of handsome pilots and said, “Get in. We’re going to Vegas.”
A Royal Air Force (RAF)Tornado GR4 blasts out of Nellis AFB, Nevada during a Red Flag exercise in full afterburner.
Explored March 6, 2013.
Tankers are normally the last ones back after a Red Flag mission, which can give some nice light conditions.
Before this F-16 officially became a fully 64th AGRS aircraft, it buzzed around Nellis AFB for a year or two in full MN ANG markings.

At the beach they have a flag system to warn swimmers of danger. Today we had a red flag due to the strong currents and waves.

Downtown Granby, Vermont was bustling with activity when I took this photo. The three buildings shown are a chapel/church, a Post Office, and the Town Clerk's office. There also is a schoolhouse just beyond the bend in the road. The town was chartered in 1761, had a population of 52 in 1970, and exploded to 84 as of the 2017 census. Granby was the last of two towns in Vermont to be hooked up to the electric grid, which occurred in 1963.
I saw only one car in the half hour I was at this location. They smiled and waved as they passed. Most of the residents in these small rural towns throughout Vermont and New Hampshire are very friendly. However, that may not be the case in the bordering town of Victory, which I drove through to get to Granby. Victory has a population of 62 as of the last census, and is known for its decades long "Hatfield versus McCoy" type feuds, keeping the local county sheriff busy. Just Google "Victory Vermont feud" for details. Maybe they are friendly to outsiders like me though. I don't know, as I saw no one at all in my drive through Victory. I suspect they may be afraid to go outside. By the way, Victory was the second of the last two towns in Vermont to be hooked up to the electric grid.
This scene looked to me like it was out of the 1800's. Even the main road through town is unpaved. So I thought it was appropriate for a black and white photo.
