Eleven aircraft arrived at Carswell Field today from Navy Jax to avoid the hurricane. We're expecting 120 plus aircraft tomorrow and Monday.

Hi Matt

Cripes, you're going to be busy

Thanks for posting

Paddyboy

I do really like the P8 with proper markings, nearly as good as the old P3 days if you can remember those
was lucky enough to do NAS Moffett Field - 10.1981 where we logged 47 P3B/P3C, but alas no pictures as it was done from the outside early one morning
don't know if the US.NAVY would have allowed it anyway and now never will

Great to see an active P-3C again, getting rarer by the day, and nice catch on the P-8A with underside radar pod.
Cheers.

Nice work Matt, great catch with the shadowy Littoral Surveillance Radar System (LSRS) P-8

120 Evacs is very nice Matt, enjoy!

Well, we never made it to 120 but I'll settle for the about 90 which we did. A small selection from the last four or five days.

This Nellis Viper and one other were working with the SC ANG at the time of the bug-out order.

Great stuff in lovely weather, haven’t seen that scheme on the adversary F-18 before.

You can divert those A/c over here any day, especially the USMC F/A18's those markings are really cool
Lucky ol' you

Superb set of images - lucky you !
