Hi All,
After my first trip in 2009 I was a kind of addicted to the enormous spotting opportunities in this great country so a next trip was planned soon afterwards.
This time I was armed with some better camera stuff which resulted in some nice pictures.
Our trip included a lot of base visits in the next States: OK, TX, NM, AV, CA and NV.
After some nice days at Nellis and Las Vegas we spent some time at the other bases in Nevada resulting the next pics made at Nas Fallon and Reno Stead:
1.
NAS Fallon is always worth a visit with the nice painted F-16's from NSAWC.
2
Taking pictures from the tower is also allowed resulting this nice pair of hornets.
3
One of our main targets this trip was finaly catcht on picture..........
4
Never saw any MH-60 with this nice camo before
5
Personaly one of my highlights is this CH-47D with the snowed mountains in the back.
6
Recently the C-1-168th Med Co received some brand new UH-72A Lakota's like this 72149 with c/n 9380
7
Still going strong to train the new pilots is this old OH-58A 72-21443
Hope you liked them again and some more pictures from our trip will follow soon again

I surely do. Let them come! Great eh... not so Black Hawk. I propose we call it a Desert Hawk instead of Sea Hawk (that is?).GIPS wrote:Hope you liked them again and some more pictures from our trip will follow soon again
