Thanks everyone, but to tell you the honest truth, the camera is a better photographer than I am. All I do is press the button... I like the new Harrier paint and a/c 20 looks great. Wish I could have gotten some shots of it without all of the "background clutter", but that's airshows... I...

I ended up a long day over at the City of Havelock Visitor's Center where I found a fortunately placed puddle from the earlier rain, and a place to sit for a 'self-portrait'. Any airshow day is a good day. Thanks for looking, hope you enjoyed the pics as much as I enjoyed taking them. Mike...

Hi, thanks for interest in the "Package Q" mission, which took place on the 19th of January 1991. It was the first daylight raid on Baghdad (don't let anyone tell you that only the Stealths went downtown) and the largest single strike package of the war, with 72 F-16's in addition to the...
