Sorry to disappoint if you thought that you were going to see pictures from Hill AFB! These are from the Warren at Lakenheath as the French were launching for yesterday's Point Blank exercise, distinct lack of sunlight this week making things a bit difficult.

Yes being local and knowing where to go helps a lot, still could have all gone wrong and ended up with nothing....that's the nature of the hobby.

Excellent shots considering that flat light and poor sky

Thanks for posting
