Awesome shots.  Are the originals you have big enough and of high enough quality for large desktop wallpapers?

Still think the F-16 is the only good-looking jet.

Might have something to do with watching the 174th TFW fly them out of Syracuse for so long...  :aok

I think the F-22 looks better than the 16s. However an aviation enthusiast can always appreciate such wonderful pictures.

Thanks for sharing.

Has anyone else ever noticed the similarities between the F16 and the P51?  Just wondered...

The F-16 has got to be the sexiest modern Western jet... though the F15 doesn't come in far behind.
Especially the one pictured with the Russian-looking blue camouflage.

I can see what you mean with the air intake, but I've never really liked the Pony that much aesthetically. The Viper on the other hand...

Actually these F-16s are not Air National Guard, they are active duty F-16s with the 354th Fighter Wing 18th Agressor Squadron stationed at Eielson AFB, Alaska. I would know because I'm stationed here. They are here for the purpose of Red Flag-Alaska. Now, the KC-135s are Alaska Air National Guard 168th Air Refueling Wing.
