F16 static

[krigl]

Hi, here are some pics I took of an F16 on static display at the CIAF air display at Brno Turany, Czech Republic. I know diddly squat about it but it was sitting menacingly on my hard drive and I thought I'd share  :)

I like checking out the shots in this section but have no time to post comments... I'm really sorry!! So don't feel obliged to comment on mine, don't mind if you don't but all comments welcome of course.

I know they're not up to the standard here but I'll post some more from my part of the world later anyway... just "sharing the love" as it were  :D

Have a good one y'all, your shots are great!!!!

Awsome shots! I love F-16s.

Anyone know what the thing on it's back is? radar equipment? electronic countermeasures? Whatever it is, it makes the plane look bigger and meaner than usual.

Thanks!

I don't know exactly, but I understand that a ton of electronic stuff goes in there that doesn't fit into the usual places in the airframe, and I also read that Lockheed produces the planes with empty spines, and then air forces fit whatever stuff they want in there...

It certainly makes the plane look meaner, though I prefer the "classic" style....

Nice shots

Personally, I love the Falcon, but I absolutely hate the two seat variant. They messed up all the graceful lines when they did that, now it just looks like a madman had too many parts leftover from his previous creations and threw them all on this plane.

Very nice!

You certainly got better shots of that type than I did when it was at Waddington, the static there is terrible for photography :-/

Nice shots, I really like both #2 and #3.  #2 has a really nice stance too it, I think its because the photo was taken from below the aircraft and close enough to make it look as if it is standing over you.  #3 is just cool looking.

Thats a sweet photo too.  I really like how you can see the rifling inside the minigun barrells.
