Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Hi! Glad to see you like the pix. I thought they were military until I saw they had N- registration numbers.

Friday was overcast, but they were back out Sunday in clear skies. Sadly the F-18s were landing on 36-- too far for photos, but the F-5s were using 29.

Yes, as far as I know from looking at Tactical Air Support's own website, these are all ex-Jordanian AF. They also have half dozen CF-5Ds, license built in Canada, those are all 2 seaters.

Apparently they came down from Reno to support Nimitz' pre-deployment COMPTUEX.
