One from the way back machine. An old Aero Union P2 dropping retardant on a hilltop in northern California in the mid 90s. No idea who took the picture.

I know these are terrible pictures, but what are these guys? Being so close to Tyndall AFB affords one the opportunity to see LOTS of cool stuff always flying around.

C-17 and an Osprey.

I like the shape of the C-17s. I've seen them before. Never seen an Osprey before. Saw that guy flying around more than one day. Lots of jets flying around, but they are too high and fast for me to get a picture even as good as these. Thanks.
