Air-To-Air with the Colombian Air Force: The Article!

[NickPeterman]

Hey Guys,

Some of you may remember that while posting photos from Red Flag 12-4, I mentioned that there were some things that I wasn't allowed to share at the time.


Well, I now can! Chief among the awesome experiences that week was a flight aboard the Colombian KC-767 MMTT (a former Air China 767-200ER) to photograph their Kfirs in flight. It was an incredible opportunity.

I hope you guys enjoy the pictures, and the article, which is a first for me. As such, I'd love whatever feedback you can give!

[NickPeterman]

Thank you, Mark. It was a long road, about 5 months or so. I will post larger versions of some of the shots when able, and when my editor allows :)

As promised, some individual views of photos from the flight!
