The 49th Fighter Training Squadron is the IFF (Introduction to Fighter Fundamentals) squadron at Columbus Air Force Base, Mississippi. In September I had the opportunity to fly with the squadrons T-38 Talons on a dedicated photo sortie for Combat Aircraft Monthly.
In the Summer of 2017 the 159th EFS of the Florida ANG deployed to Campia Turzii in Romania for a TSP deployment. On behalf of Combat Aircraft Magazine I visited the squadron and flew on a dedicated photo mission to capture their F-15’s with the local MiG-21 LanceR’s. It was the second time for me to fly with the Florida guardsmen and woman after I flew with them in 2015 out of Bulgaria. Thanks again to all of you in the Florida ANG for hosting me!
During my F-16 flight over Wisconsin in May 2017, during exercise Northern Light, I was extremely lucky to encounter a pair of F-22A Raptors for a very short photo opportunity. After the two ship took some gas for their flight home to Langley AFB they joined up on my F-16D for a few unprepared photo set ups. To this date I am still stunned by the maneuverability of these aircraft. INCREDIBLE!
In May 2017 I was honored to fly with the 176th FS from the Wisconsin Air National Guard during exercise Northern Lightning. Please enjoy this collection.
Images taken during the Baltic Air Policing duties for the Royal Netherlands Air Force in 2017. The F-16’s where temporary deployed to Siauliai in Lithuania. Aerial imagery was taken from the ramp of a C-27J of the Lithuanian Air Force.
Griffin Eagles, American F-35A’s and C’s and some other gems are in this collection of Low Level photo’s. This was the third time that I have been to the world famous Starwars Canyon and the forst time I did some pre planned photo shoots with a few pilots.
Spectaculair Low Level pictures of Dutch F-35’s over Death Valley National Park. Also included are a few shots taken of the same Dutch F-35’s at their home base, Edwards Air Force Base, California.
Flying with the Mile High Militia, the 140th WG of the Colorado ANG. This photo flight had it all, great flying by the pilots, great photo opportunities( including weapon releases, a first for me!) and of course the amazing landscape of Colorado. Its not going to get any better than this!
During their TSP deployment to Europe in 2016 the 194th EFS ‘Griffins’ of the California ANG conducted Air Policing duties in Bulgaria. On their ferry from Romania to Bulgaria I was invited to take pictures of Bulgarian MiG-29’s and the mighty F-15’s.
