Hi Guys,
Just thought I would share some images. I have plenty more, including some Strike Eagle shots, but the files are to large to post.

Hi Barra,

Nice photos. You could post larger files in the Pictures section of DT.

Cheers

Thanks for sharing.

If photos are too large, you could upload them to the gallery... did you take these pictures?

Enjoy!

No, I am not a fly boy. We send our officers out to do the fighting and dying in the air force, I think that is what upsets the army so much. He He Photos were distributed amongst the personnel at the time, I also have some flir footage from F-15, F-18 and F-16 which I may post.

Guys,
I have posted some F-15E shots on the Gallery under Gulf War 2 - OIF. I F@%^&d up by labelling all of them F-15 and F-18 on the Tanker when there is only one shot with an F-18 in it. Oops. Anyway enjoy!!

A few more photos from 2003. The photo of the probe damage was the result of tanking on the KC-135 with a hose attachment on the boom. The pilots called this the "wrecking ball" for obvious reasons. All up I think they lost about 5~6 probes over 3 months of ops.

Cheers
