Got one email that got under my skin a bit so thought I would take my "show and tell" one step further. Here are some of the flights I have done in order to get the images I have claimed credit for.

This one was flying in the Mirage 2000-5 at the Paris Airshow.

This one was flying with the South African Air Force against the Su-35.

Royal Australian Air Force F-18s.

Norwegian Air Force shooting F-16s and F-5s.

Self portrait in the Super Bug with VFA122.

F-14 at Strike Test with one of the Kelly Brothers, now flying Space Shuttles.

F/A-18F Super Hornet with VFA122

F-15 with FL ANG

B1 Crew I got to fly with at McConnell AFB.

F-16 at 62nd FS at Luke.

Great series of flights at NSAWC, with me on far left.

After flying with Mike Rabens at TPS.

Cold and wintery Hawk flying in Finland.

Flying with Canadians at CFB Cold Lake.

T-38s at Vance.

Now I hope to heck that this post stops the emails. If it doesnt then you can shove it where the sun dont shine, and this is directed at one individual who knows who he is. :icon_king

I'll say this much for you Ned, you sure get around.

Ned, it's official....I hate you. I'm watering at the mouth at some of those aircraft you've gotten to fly in.

Impressive photos all around. Keep it up!

Even though I'm a helo guy, and love everything rotary wing - This is an incredible picture. I have to admit, I was a bit wary when you first posted the offer for the magazine (I think I was on deployment at the time and had hightened OPSEC/Privacy sensors), but I'm glad I put that aside - great magazine and great photos!

Jeepers Ned. I'm sure you must have some bitchin' ASTREA helicopter pics in there somewhere. Low on the cool factor...I get it.

Ned,

If I call you a phoney will you put some more pictures up?



Hey! It was worth a try.

I beat you to it, but via PM. I said it was all photoshop

Fantastic pictures, you do great work! What country do those camo T-45s belong to?

Finland... says so in the caption. Its also a BAe. Hawk.. a little different than the T-45. Based off of the same airframe though.

Bubba - Yes you are correct. Have a close look at the missiles on the far aircraft, they are Russian missiles. Archer or Alamo or something like that.

I'd mistakenly thought he was talking about the Hawk on the ground... didn't notice the pic of the two airborne. Same markings, though. I'd love to get a ride in a Hawk or a T-45... looks like a sweet little jet.

I was at KMEI about 2 or 3 months ago... a T-45 started up and the FBO started shaking... was pretty awesome. The one Goshawk made more noise than the 2 or 3 Saberliners that were spinning.
