That Mirage 2000 shot is awesome.
 
Nice shots, though you possibly zoomed in a bit too much on the F18 and the Mirage. It's a very tight crop on the F18 and you've clipped one wingtip and the tail on the Mirage. Thanks for posting them though - my favourite is the pilot in the F16 cockpit!
 
Thanks for the comments guys. i took nearly 3500 pics over the 5 days its gonna take ages to got through these.

cheers

The cuddly Homer Simpson in the Viper cockpit is the Sqn mascot that flies in as many types as possible, has his own logbook and photo album and will be auctioned for charity in a few months time. He has spent a year in the International Space Station and flown in everything from Hawk to Raptor. I flew him on Sunday, if you don't mind i'll tag some shots to this thread?

This is Homer in #4 of 'Stampede', a Hawk T2 leading 4 T1s. On Saturday we were joined by an F3 (Scimitar), a RNZAF 757 (Kiwi), 2 USAF F15s (Hook), a FAF Mirage 2000 (Coton) and a pair of Dutch F16s (Mace). Unfortunatley the poor weather on Sunday meant that only Stampede came out to play. I'll put together a RIAT air to air thread tonight.

Nice set. And Cheesy make sure we know when the action is as well.
 
Some nice shots there Matt, especially like the Mirage (y) Sure you have a few more corkers tucked away in your 3500 collection :LOL:
