"I can only see an F-15 on those pictures "

And what's wrong with that? All that fancy, high tech and overrated so called stealth stuff without the payload you really need... Gimme that graceful Eagle!

Hi Dmitri, I visited both airshows last year and although both are nice I think Yuma is the most interesting. More variety in the flying program with F-5's, AV-8, F-35 A and B, V-22, AH-1 and UH-1 and some WW2 planes against the Blue Angles and some demo's from WW2 planes, T-33, F-86 etc. (check htt...

Ik heb een B+W uv-filter van ik meen 70/80 Euro voor m'n Canon 100-400 mrk II gehad en kon hierdoor geen scherpe foto meer maken (onverklaarbaar scherpteverlies op willekeurige plekken op de foto's), dus heb deze er uiteindelijk weer afgehaald. Ja, niet fijn om geen bescherming voor m'n glas te hebb...

Did the Spanish EF-2000 started up from the static line (RWY24L) or where they towed to the north side of the field before start-up and departue? And are the Greek F-4's still on the static or moved somewhere else on the field?

On March the 9th I visited Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Arizona for their annual airshow. Just like the years before it was a great event with a small but interesting static and a great airshow with the US Marines showing most of their air assets in a spectacular way. 1. https://i79.photobucket.co...

Hi Bart, I visited Seymour Johnson shortly in 2016 (https://final-approach.jouwweb.nl/2016/seymour-jonhnson). I positioned myself on the Lewis Dairy road halfway the runway for take off shots (https://www.scramble.nl/airfield-guide/goldsboro-nc-seymour-johnson-afb, position nbr 4.) Unfortunately aft...

Bloomberg is reporting that the Pentagon will request $1.2 billion for 12 Boeing F-15Xs in the fiscal year 2020 budget. Sources told the business news that the jets will replace aging F-15Cs in service with the Air National Guard. https://about.bgov.com/blog/pentagon-billion-new-boeing-fighters/ Reg...

My take on the recent F-22A and F/A-18E/F deployment to RAF Lakenheath earlier this month: http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j144/Dartstaffel713/07_zpsugyrwmse.jpg http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j144/Dartstaffel713/10_zpsylhywv0s.jpg http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j144/Dartstaffel713/15_zpspb6...

Ah sorry, you're correct Frank. Unfortunately not tbower40, painted back in its original grey colours again

Thanks for your answer Tally and yes tbower40, the 173rd fly with F-15C/D's with a large Eagle on their tail.

Hi,

Anybody ever been to Kingsley Field Air National Guard Base to watch the F-15's from the 173rd FW from outside (approach end)? Curious about the possibilities here.

Thanks in advance!

Regards, Edwin

Bedankt voor de antwoorden zover! Vandaag weer gewerkt met de combi (100-400mm + 7D) en welke setting ik ook gebruik (1/1000ste sluitersnelheid, met of zonder IS, 400 of 200 mm) het is onscherp. Alsof ik door een doorzichtige sticker aan het fotograferen ben of iemand een veeg vaseline over de lens ...

Zijn er hier nog meer mensen die de 'nieuwe' Canon 100-400 mark II lens gebruiken in combinatie met de 7D mark II en ook problemen hebben/ontevreden zijn over de uiteindelijk scherpte v.d. foto's? Erg benieuwd naar jullie mening/bevinding van dit objectief en deze combi.
