    Moose-What can I say, a little teasing isn't usually in my nature, so I'm trying it out

    Vinny, falcon, thank you both!

    Great Work !!!
    The beehive hummm of the JT9D and GE CF680C2,the thunder of the JT8D-17,the rumble of the PW1830 and the high ,thin whine of the PW 545A are all music to my ears!

    Steve, Nellis is Red Flaggy all year round except whenever [I] am in LAs Vegas it seems. Twice now I have gone over to the base when there was absolutely NOTHING going on

    But anyway, here is the official page on it

    http://www.nellis.af.mil/library/flyingoperations.asp

    and some unofficial ones too :-)

    727c47, Steve, Mark-Thank you all!


    Steve, There are usually 4 Red Flags per Fiscal year, this being the final one of FY 2012. There is one scheduled for October, although I have heard many rumors of it being cancelled in all liklihood. Feel free to PM me if you want more detailed Nellis and Red Flag spotting info, as I would be more than happy to share my experiences here.

    I will try and get photos from the past two days edited and posted ASAP. Hopefully I will have them done before I find myself in NYC in a few weeks.


    Nick

    Note: Due to several instances of unapproved use and copyright violation involving my Kfir Photos from this thread, I have removed them, and deleted them, for the time being. If mods want to clean up any reference to them, that would be fine with me. I will hopefully re-post them somewhat soon, after the issues have been resolved.

    More pics at last! I have been consumed with the project that took me to nellis in the first place, but here are a few more goodies from 12-4!

    Figured I might as well add a little bit to the fun!
