Spent a few hours waiting to see if the F-35 would fly today... It didn't, at least it didn'e before I had to leave... But I did get some pretty good viper shots!
Hope y'all like 'em!

Wonder if that first Viper could've carried any more gas ? |

Werd! Guess i'm gonna have to go out there next week and get a few pics. Were you over on the side of the runway before Lockheed?
Saw an IDA/F the other day flying pretty low. Didn't have a camera to take a pic though.  |

Yeah I was @ the turnout on White Settlement Rd. off 199... There was a bunch of people there as the rumours of the F-35 flying weere being tossed around... One of the other guys that was there got and even better shot of the F-16 wave than I did... It's over on Fence Check...

| The picture of the pilot waving, was it one of the "Texas Singles" jets? If I can figure out what tail number it is, I MIGHT be able to get the pilot to sign that picture for you. Also, I would need the time the picture was taken, so I can look at the schedule. |

I am just not sure of the tail number... As you can see he was so close I cut off the Tail... The pic was taken @ 1414 on March 7th 2007 if that helps... Thanks for the offer... I would love to have the pilot sign it if possible!!!
I know for sure the tail number of the F-16 that took off right ahead of the one that waved was 86-244... He also waved but didn't break right over us...
I know this isn't much to go on... Thanks again
