Nice!! I was out there for a week about a year ago, but too busy for a sightseeing flight... too bad.

Wow,  I've never seen anyone able to fly over Nellis like that.  I bet you saw the race track across the street there. ;)  I've sat at that race three or four times and they always have Red Flag going on while the race is going on, so it's pretty cool to see just about everything the armed forces have that flies taking off and landing. ;)

Great pics of a great place to visit. ;D ;)

Yes they are and I got to see them take off the next day. I also saw some F-22's take off on a training mission.
