Many of the static USAF aircraft had the '75th Anniversary' sticker displayed:
Ruptured Duck IV, named for one of the Doolittle Raid a/c
One airshow where I didn't mind seeing (ex) commercial airliners at a military field
BOTH of these aircraft broke the sound barrier
Raptors can stream vapor trails even in 85F/29C weather
...but F-35s are the vapor kings (granted, there was way more G on the Lightning than the Raptor)
They rolled the jet exiting the flight line Saturday, sadly, we weren't as lucky Sunday. Still, high speed, wing-swept back passes are always appreciated
This is where the magic happens
Oh yah, these kids put in an appearance
Skunk Works had a few designs represented...
One of these things is not like the other...
After the show, huge lines to get on the buses to get back to the parking on the lakebed. We decided to walk 1 mile back to Rodgers Dry Lake. Right at the edge of the lakebed, almost like a mirage, something appeared...
Edwards has the space to keep EVERYTHING, nothing gets thrown away.

Forum rules
This 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. |
