This Alpha model Hornet came screaming from behind the smoke cloud after a simulated ground attack run. A great display by the four ship team. Amberley Airshow 2008. [1D2+100-400L]
Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd get the chance to stand on the ramp with the F-111s of 1 Sqn RAAF as they prepared for another Red Flag 07-2 mission. My sincere thanks go to everyone who made this shot possible.
With the last remaining F-111s leaving the RAAF within the next two years, the famous dump-and-burn manoeuvre will also soon become history. What a shame, as this is a really thrilling sight!
