Below, a Vt ANG JAWS flight, however the plane {84001374} is an Indianna ANG F-16 from 122nd FW, Ft Wayne, Ind.    10/2/07
Not sure if the Vt guys were flying the Ind planes or if the Ind guys were visiting too. Many of the Vt planes were away on other assignments at the time.

Below, {84001275} Tonga flight, Vt ANG   F-16   10/13/07


Below {84001220}  REAPO-1, Vt ANG F-16  1/24/08   {poor lighting}


Below, {78000520}{78000500}  a HAWK-1 flight of 2 Ma ANG F-15s, 1/31/08
This was at a period during which the transition from Otis AFB to Barnes was taking place, ie they were using a Barnes callsign, but these were Otis planes. Not sure if these are planes that eventually replaced the A-10s at Barnes or not.




Below, a Jaws flight of 2 Vt ANG F-16s, were flying east into area at 30,000'.  I heard them, went outside, and saw the vapor trails.  Took a closeup of one of the planes, then the planes decided to abort and head west.  Got a neat picture of the vapor trails crossing while doing the 180 deg turn.   1/31/08




Below {84001275}  Narley flight, Vt ANG F-16   3/6/08


Below, another pass by KING-74 , HC130 from 106 Rescue Wing, NY ANG, Westhampton, Long Island   4/9/08


Below,  4/16/08  KING-74 announced that it was coming up VR-840, then, SNIPER-1 also said it was coming up the route.  SNIPER-1 {84001384}  made it up first, a Vt F-16, then KING-74 came up.  Again,  KING-74 is an
HC130 from 106 Rescue Wing, NY ANG, Westhampton, Long Island, but it is strange {to me} that there are no markings on this plane.  

















MORE TO COME.
