Eagle was always my favorite modern fighter. Unfortunately, I have finally accepted the fact that I will never fly one :(

Yeah, just saw your above posts too...

Well, I have resigned myself to the fact that, despite my allergy, I will end up flying blue-birds for the rest of my life and now need to get used to seeing them. So, heres my new wallpaper. Took the picture myself at Honolulu International Airport. With Hickam AFB ATTACHED to HNL, and Kaneohe Bay MCAB only a few dozen miles away, what a pair of F/A-18Fs were doing parked in GENERAL AVIATION I don't know, lol, but I told HNL Ground I wanted to pull over for a minute, when I taxied past them, to snap this pic:

I haven't got a clue why they're parked there or what they're doing there either, but their plane numbers are 04 and 05 with no other unit markings or other stuff on it I can recognize/make-out... very interesting indeed.

They were only there for a day. Went back with a better camera to get some good shots the next day and they were gone.

Back when Carrier Air Wings were Carrier Air Wings  :D  ;)

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Military aircrafts parked on GA aviations ramps is nothing extraordinary. I witness that weekly. Those guys relocate/transit/divert.

Back on the subject, here's mine on thelaptop : Alfa Romeo TZ2.

RipChord!  That is the USS Laffey (DD459)!  One tough destroyer!  She went toe-to-toe with a Jap battleship!  She lost but delivered some serious punishment, 1st Naval Battle of Guadalcanal.  Wonderful artwork!  Thanks for sharing!
