AUSSIE HORNET
In October 1981, Australia signed a contract for the provision of 75 F/A-18 Hornet aircraft , of which 18 were two-seat aircraft configuration. The first two aircraft were produced in the United States, with the remainder being assembled by the Government Aircraft Factories (GAF) in Victoria, Australia . The Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) received it's first Hornet at RAAF Base Williamtown's No. 2 Operational Conversion Unit (2OCU) in May 1985. 2OCU commenced Hornet Pilot Training shortly after in August 1985. As such, 2005 the RAAF will celebrate 20 years of successful F/A-18 Hornet Operations. F/A-18 Hornet A21-26, a single seat RAAF Hornet aircraft has been painted in a celebratory ' Year of the Hornet ' anniversary paint scheme.
Rooivalk "African Sky"
This past festive season gave me some time to be a little creative so i used two images that i photographed and created this dramatic "painting". The Rooivalk helicopter(16Sqn) fired these rockets during a training operation near Bloemfontein and the sunset i photographed from a moving car near Johannesburg, South Africa.
Cockpit sunshade!
Captains can have very creative ideas some times!
This particular one, "professionally" managed to use his personalized checklist (checking the copilot mostly) and some beautiful "Head Up Display" also, to rest his eyes on it, during the long and boring auto pilot flight hours.
All that, combined in a shade to keep the sun rays out of the cockpit...!!!

Wallpaper F-16
A nice closeup photo of a viper driver, probably taken from a tanker boom controller's point of view.
It's nice to be used as a wallpaper on your desktop, isn't it?

Apache Longbow at sunset
The AH-64D Longbow is fitted with the Longbow millimetre wave fire control radar and the Longbow Hellfire missile.
The Longbow fire control radar incorporates an integrated radar frequency interferometer for passive location and identification of radar-emitting threats.
An advantage of millimetre wave is that it performs under poor-visibility conditions and is less sensitive to ground clutter.
The short wavelength allows a very narrow beam width, which is resistant to countermeasures.

These old, little aeroplanes have served our air force for many years and you will not convince any of these 185-pilots that there is a better plane on the planet.

Oryx "Vultures"
Oryx helicopter from 17Sqn, Swartkop, South Africa, landing in a very confined space in the upper Drakensberg mountain, in a waterfall. This was a really scary experience for me. The rockfaces are metres away from the bladetips on three sides.

Hercules C130B "Pretty Lady"
Hercules C130B "Flossie" is based at AFB Waterkloof, 28 Squadron, Pretoria, South Africa. Photography took place over a dam near Brits in South Africa in the afternoon. These aircraft are more than 40years old and are in imaculant condition. The crews love their planes dearly and walking into the squadron with enlarged prints of this lady lit up their faces. I used 2lenses (18-70mm and 70-300mm), adjustable polarising filters to enhance contrast and colours, 250sec, 0.3overexposure compensation and auto aperture. I always shoot aircraft on the vivid-setting in the progammable mode.
