That is a lovely set from the Southwest, and it looks wintery. I really like the Apache shots.
Best regards, Mike.

Re: EC-121 at Airfete
Photos from the start of my 1978 visit and report on the Air Fete, not only a fabulous visitor for the show but the fashion of the time is quite interesting.

Swiss Air Force F-5's and Mirage IIIs RAF Waddington during the nineties
This post takes you back in time. It is RAF Waddington in the early Nineties, and it's a memoir of the Swiss Air Force Mirage IIIs and F-5s visiting over various years on their annual NORKA exercises on the ACMI range. https://legendarymilavia.blogspot.com/2022/10/swiss-air-force-mirage-iii-and-nort...

ROKAF "Black Eagles" practise Boscombe Down
Spent some time at RAF Boscombe Down on Tuesday to watch the "Black Eagles practice routine. I thought they were great and I love the T-50 jets, certainly nice to hear a jet team with a bit more Umph! 1. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52199440380_6b83ac0dd1_h.jpg ROKAF T-50's RAF Boscombe Down ...

Spanish F-4 Phantoms under fire from Ala 15 EF-18Ms.
Navarra, Northern Spain and the last resting place of many of the Spanish Air Force F-4 Phantoms. Perhaps better not to look if you adore the F-4 Phantom!
