Sneak Peak of my summer vacation

These are just a couple of the pictures from today, which was only day one of my summer vacation this year. Many many many more to come, probably next week when I get done with my trip and get them uploaded.

You're just plane crazy. Sorry. That wasn't punny.

You're pretty handy with a camera!!

Enjoy your vacation. We all need one time-to-time. Looks like you're right in your element.

If I ever win the mega millions I would buy you an F-16 or something just so I could get a ride once in awhile =D

Amazing photo's!
So, vacationing near an airport?
ROFL!!

Can't wait for the rest of your vacation stories!

S&F awesome photos!

Looks like Zaph is a real jetsetter.

Wow, those pics are amazing! Glad you had such a great time!

a reply to: Zaphod58

is that a A-4 Trainer there Zaph?

neat looking plane.

Red Flag? Vegas, baby?

Love the A-4 two seater and the single Draken A-4. Righteous Airframe.

All three A-4s were Draken. The Grey one looked like it had a tow target slung under it.

That was day one. We're heading west today for a few days, then back to Vegas this weekend.

Right on zaph. You work your butt off most if the year enjiy your time off.

I heard the motel 6 in ridgcrest is now up to 2 stars and even offerring intermittent wifi!

Wonders if he'll take 395 to Sandquist, snort bypass or calloway rd?...... Or, is it a more Rosamond thing.

Could be Joint Base Lewis McChord my uninformed/limited guess?....
because of the F16 313 plane
or was it just visiting Nellis....?

Seattle/Tacoma area --- Take a gander and visit Olympic Pennisula,
Orcas Island, Stevens Pass for an awesome drive up the mountains,
then goto Washington Wine Country and finally hit up way north to
Whistler-Blackcomb for some mile high Gondola rides and
ziplining...

May I also suggest a Mig 29 for only 4.6 million:

And for you daily 1000 acre Ranch to Downtown flying
taxi may I also interest you in a $3 million
Mi24 or Mi-28 Hind Gundship chopper!

The Mi-35 is a BIT more expensive at about $15 to $20 million

Isn't always fun to tease just the tip of the ice burg?

I so want to post the "others".

What a great vacation, Zaph! I love those pix! Continue to enjoy your vacation. We'll hold down the fort here and wait impatiently for more pix.

I just had to add.... I love the mix of desert and aircraft.
