Wilco!

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

very impressive stuff i like the first shot, much international participation?

 

[evangilder]

Thanks. There were a few foreign aircraft on display and the Dutch F-16 demo was really good.That was the only foreign flying demo though. There were L-29 and L-39 trainers, a Belgian F-16 and some exchange pilots from the test pilot school. But it was mostly a USAF show.

Thanks guys. Here's some things that make you go boom.

Has USAF changed the wing tank designs on the B-52? They look smaller (shorter). And, if so, why?

 

[evangilder]

They could be. That is one of the Edwards B-52s, so it could be one of the test mods. I have a couple of pics of the F-16XL that I will get posted soon. It looks complete, minus the engine.

I have the preliminary pages built for the Edwards show. I need to build three more galleries and add thumbnails for the index, but most are done and ready at:
