Awesome pics, where were they taken? What air force is that other than USAF?

All superb but I'm particularly drawn to the departure shots of the F-16's!

Thanks for posting!

Steven.

Keep seeing the Hueys shuffling back and forth, first time I've seen one up close. UH-1H? Any idea of it's background? Note it's DoS. It's been in AFG a long time!

Contractor S-92 pops in and a similar blue and white CH-46.

Highlight downtown yesterday was the Turkish Stars C-130. Alas, no camera.

The contractor S-92 is part of AAR Airlift Group which took over Presidential Airways which was formerly XE Aviation formerly Blackwater Aviation :)
