Great photos all! I've always loved the F-14, they look so menacing! :thumb:

Man you guys are spoiling me.

That is one bird I'd wish I'd gotten good shots of (the ones I did have were shot on film, and weren't all that great and they got lost along with a few more of my photos I had).

She sure was good looking bird. And the best of all the cats.

The only chance I got to see one flying was with some F-18s over here on the NW coast doing an exercise, it was off in the distance and not doing very much at all. :(

None of that museum or air show rubbish from me...

Scanned from prints taken at Fallon in October and November 1998.

Oh how nice it was to see live Tomcats…
