And also the Hercules, ok STOL/Not STOL, whatever.....you watch this thing dive to the runway, stop on a dime and then hop into the air again.....WOW!!  :o

Do you want a flake with that?

Baby got back.......did I just say that?

Those at the front....DUCK!  :o

glad your harrier shots came out well. Almost all of mine came out badly.
I have an identical shot of the C130, amazing display for such  big aircraft.

C-130J with six bladed turboprops apparently, not standard for anything before the J suffix. I'm prepared to be proved wrong (it happens regularly  ;) )

Yes,tis the new J model. From what I gather here in the states are Guard units and Coast Guard will get theirs first then everyone else. I see them doing touch and goes here at Pope AFB every once in awhile. Nice shots.

I think you mean the 400M (AIRBUS Military), which i learnt an awful lot about yesterday, They are similar props, but the 400M's rotate in different directions!

Great pics, as are your others, I love the C130 displays, especially the dives into the landing.
