The link below has my last WOW 2008 update as far as ground 2 air photos go, Air 2 Airs will be next.

At the link below you can see some shots of two C130Js that were at Woodbourne today.
Lighting was awful but a good time to learn.

biggrin.gif If i was getting fuel dumped on me car ? I'd want a good alarm ...Oooincks unsure.gif I dont own a car .... Ok then my pushbike ! biggrin.gif

The alarms are set of by the compression/shock wave of hot air hitting the cold at max trust thus causing vibrations thru the air which can also make people nausea/faint and make the cheap ass alarms go off and cost the Australia's RAAF lotta fuel .

Damm it 2FAST cool.gif let see emm do that again ...... I do love that sound ! thumbup1.gif

Beautiful pics ...that's one of the better F-111 shots I've seen.
It is a brutal thing alright, I was passing Whenuapai last year when this beast turned up for practice.
Even when it's not angry and just coasting in to land, the sound is a physical force.
