British Tornadoes


High flying B52

(normally all B52s are high flying at Red Flag, though there was some scanner activity during this Red Flag regarding a B52 "on the deck".


Mystery contrail. Looks like something out of high school biology...


Probably the HH-60G from the Nellis rescue squadron


Now this pilot understands where to fly to get a good photograph. I'm glad somebody is paying attention.

It never hurts to check the cockpit for "mooning."

This is the gap that the planes use to enter the range.


These helicopters were flying the "sally" corridor.


Night exercise at the Keno airstrip

The Keno airstrip is located in the Cedar Pipeline area of the range. More information can be found on this page.

These following images are frame grabs from a video recorder attached to a night vision scope. In the first image, two C130 are seen flying low over the ridge. In the second image, the lead C130 sets off an array of flares. The horizontal stripe is the Keno runway illuminated by the flares. The second C130 can be seen in the background as a smaller dot. In the third frame, the two C130s are egressing toward Coyote Summit.

A minutes worth of video can be seen here (windows media format).
