A couple of Raptor shots.

Kevin, it looks like a vertical vapor cloud has formed along the spine of the Raptor in your second photo.  Nice catch. 

[Joe Shepherd]

Thanks, Brandon
Ireally like the highspeed pass and takeoff shots of yours. Kevin, love the vapor on the spine of the Raptor.

The mohawk along the cockpit and the razorback along the spine of the F-22 is pretty neat!

Thanks everyone for the great shots!

[BrittMac]

Thanks for the comments.  Maybe someday I will get through all these other pics to put some more up!

And WOW!  I have to agree with everyone else about that vapor "mohawk" on the Raptor.  That is phenomenal.  I have never seen that on any plane that I can think of.  Just another reason to love pics of the Raptor.

Kevin J, BRD, BrittMac - great shots!

Here's one on Saturday waiting at Bonita Bay.     Darn Gorilla Pod got one of our FenceCheckers in a head lock!

Thanks, Jason.

Here's a couple of the F15 and one of the F22 (I'm not really happy with the end result of the F22, but enjoyed the vapor, anyway).

Mike Riffle and I put our cameras on sticks for a unique perspective. Here is Mike and sporting his FenceCheck patch no less. He'll show his stick pictures later, no doubt.



My stick had the extension:

Since I've been called out here's Bill relaxing with his stick:

I promise I'll be posting some more photos but right now I'm busy fulfilling my obligation to the Thunder In The Valley show.

Well he had to pass the time somehow during the storms!

Sidebar: I met Kev at Bonita Bay on Thursday before the show, but the storms were upon us. "Hey, Kev, rather than waiting here doing nothing, wanna go for a ride and see Mexico Beach?" I can't type with an English accent, but Kev said sure. I then took him to my house and put him to work taking down a large gazebo awning that was about to blow away. Thanks, Kev. Also, the storms have passed, so when can you get back here and help me put it back up? Cheers.
