One of the most famous spots to shoot at Nellis is at the Las Vegas Speedway, specifically near Checkered Flag Lane.
Coincidentally, the "tail flash" of Nellis is a yellow and black checkerboard.
U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Joshua Ortega, 92nd Air Refueling Squadron boom operator, prepares a mid-air re-fuel during Red Flag 14-1 over the Nevada Test and Training Range Feb. 4, 2014. Mid-air re-fueling is vital to a combat mission because it allows fighters, bombers, and other aircraft essential to the fight to refuel without having to waste valuable time refueling on the ground. The more these re-fueling operations are practiced in a controlled environment, the smoother they will run in a real-world combat environment. Red Flag is hosted at Nellis AFB, Nev., and provides realistic combat training in a contested, degraded and operationally limited environment.

On 31 July 2018, a Combat Control Team from Royal Australian Air Force No. 4 Squadron inserted into Batchelor Airfield via parachute and US Marine Corps MV-22 Osprey aircraft in a training scenario to survey and secure the airfield to allow other Air Force groups to come in and build an air base in an 'austere' location as part of Exercise Pitch Black 2018.
Exercise Pitch Black is the Royal Australian Air Force’s largest and most complex exercise. Pitch Black 2018 is being conducted at RAAF Bases Darwin and Tindal from 27 July until 18 August.
This year’s exercise features up to 4000 personnel and up to 140 aircraft from 15 participating nations. Exercise Pitch Black aims to further develop offensive counter air, air-land integration, and intelligence, reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities, as well as foster international co-operation with partner forces.

Windswept and with a salty Atlantic tang in the air, this is the very end of the Long Island Railroad at Montauk. The old station building in no longer in railroad use, passengers having to make with the island platform facility in the far distance. A ‘scoot’ (shuttle) train provides off-peak services as far as Speonk, within Suffolk County.
