Biggest problem to make some good shots are the heatwaves as you can see on this one :

There was a lot of activities on-going with successively C-130

Then I decided to go back to the western spot when I saw on bunch of F-16 showing up preparing to take off :

I had to leave around 15:00 to catch my flight back home. It was heartbreaking, there was so much action going on. At some point I heard on the scanner ATC Ground apologizing to some visitors for the delay to take off and mentioning that it was highly unusually busy !! Anyhow I could stay any longer but what a day !
My favourite of the day :

I moved to 4 different places during that day around the airfield, met some local folks too (like MikeK), we even found that we had a "friend" in common (PietL) (en passant thanks Piet for all the tips- it really helped ). Biggest challenge there is to get some good angles without the sun facing and to cope up with the heatwaves (early on the morning would be actually better to fix this one). Beside that great place, lots of action (could be a lucky day too), the Walmart nextdoor to re-fill
