I spent 3 days near Nellis AFB: 11, 12 and 14 April. On 14 April they were landing to the north, which was a nice opportunity to photograph in the morning from Devry Lane (according to Google Maps) or Devary Ave (according to the street sign), about 200 meter south of E Cheyenne Ave. 1. https://live...

I spent two days near Sheppard AFB. On 3 April they were flying from the north and on 5 April they were flying from the south. Farm to Market Road, south of the airbase, is much closer to the runways than Bailey Road, north of the airbase. The banking shots of the T-38's were made from Farm to Marke...

Yes the F-22's look different.
