I have never seen an operational F-4 that was shiny.

When a crew rotated stateside from Udorn they'd snap a pix of 'em on the crew boarding ramp or standing by it ..
..saw the crewcheif wipe the side of the plane down with brake fluid to make it 'shiny' for the photo .. LOL.

Then they would tow the plane to the paint hangar ..cause brake fluid did a number on the paint-stencils-etc.

The paint itself wasn't even semi-gloss ..it was flat camo.

I did not know about this and even if I did the night shift would have interfered with my being up to see it. I have only heard of one other Tucson AHer. We should get together at the Pima Air and Space Museum.

There's at least 4 of us.

Me, Maverick, you and Puma44

I'd be up for a Tucson AH get together. No better place than the museum.

We will be heading out of town by next weekend if things go as we expect. We won't be back until next December.

Puma do you have a site with the full res shots? ARWs would be nice too (or whatever your RAW format is).
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

Welp, plans changed. That happens when you cast them in jello. It looks like we'll be here another week getting a repair taken care of. Parts won't be in until next week.

I'd be happy to help you out. Although, I didn't shoot in RAW.  New camera, still learning the ropes. If you have any ideas, I'm all ears.

Oh my! Jpg destroys the best of the images. Which camera do you have?

I think (depending on the camera you have) it actually uses less card space to record in raw because it doesnt have to keep the raw AND the jpg. If your camera didnt come with a conversion utility or you dont have Photoshop you might be stuck. Adobe may have a free conversion program also.

Flickr might work as a place to upload... or Dropbox. Dropbox basic which is free gives 2GB of space. The problem is sharing on Dropbox which you have to decide on. Its really better for groups of people in photography classes or business groups.

Flickr limits you to 20mb per image and that means one image with a 16 or 18 MP camera. 300MB per month also limits you to 15 images of that size.

Windows Live Photo Gallery (Free) gives you 25GB and is quickly becoming the most popular.

Complete list (more or less):   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_photo_sharing_websites
