Great images in the last couple pages! I went to Ocean City for the show again today, sat on the cold beach for almost 6 hours. They kept postponing the show due to the low cloud ceiling. It didn't look like it was getting any better by 2:45 so I left. They cancelled the show later after all. Yesterday they cancelled the show after one act.
Glad I went on Friday, poor light but at least the vaper god was kind. Here are a few from Friday, Ea-18G Growler and Blue Angel.

Our friend with the seats behind home plate called last night to see if we wanted to go to the game. I could care less, but Sheila loves it, the food is incredible, and I can bridge the gap by bringing a camera. The R100-500 is beyond the legal limit but the security guy knows me and just smiles as I go through.
Just can say how sharp, crisp, and vibrant these are Jim!
Well done as usual!

Thanks Bill, yes I was but I forgot my password and the email I registered with was defunked so I had the register again! I still checked the forums as a guest though.

Same but for some reason I never noted my FM log in down, I'm always having to consult my notebook for something! They tell you not to write down passwords but I'd never remember them otherwise!
From an old RIAT show, I've flown a number of times on a BA A380 and it's without doubt the most comfortable airliner to fly on imo, even in economy though I've been fortunate to have flown in every class on that jet, including First. Never had the Reds fly on the wings though! (if you didn't know, the reason they fly with the airbrakes out is because it disturbs the airflow and makes the smoke much more pronounced than if they didn't, also means they apply more power therefore make more noise)
A Green Mountain Boys Viper waking up at dawn on the Tyndall flightline during a Combat Archer live missiles shoot deployment in 2006. Spent a week with that squadron, was a lot of fun.

Also from 2015, a 9 hour KC-135 flight from Mildenhall to Estonia to refuel deployed A-10s, after emailing some formations we requested for photos I was really pleased how this one worked out. Photos made it in Combat Aircraft magazine as well as a calendar and are on the walls of the squadron's HQ at Whiteman AFB.
Unfortunately my photography days are over as I'm now full time caring for my mother and can no longer get out, so I sold everything last year.
Incredible images, Kevin. However, kudos and respect for taking care of your mother. This is not always easy, so I'll say incredible a few levels higher. Good on ya!

Don't write them down. First, it's a huge security risk. And second, it gets you into the habit of making credentials that are easier to remember, and reusing passwords, which is an even worse security risk.
That's why password managers exist. I recommend 1Password.
With a password manager, you install it as a browser plugin, and an app on your phone. You create and remember ONE killer password, and one only. I suggest a memorable phrase because we can all remember a sentence, like "My God, I love photography too much!" That's effectively as good as a 37-character random password, but you'll ONLY use it to get into your password manager at the start of each day or week, or every two weeks (whatever you select). You can use something shorter too, but make this one a GOOD password since it protects every other piece of data.
Then the password manager app will create a unique, strong password for you on each website AND remember them all AND enter them for you so you never have to tap out a password again. It'll also store secure notes like credit card numbers and critical data, and all of it is encrypted on your machine so even if it's stolen from the company's servers it is still secure and unreadable.
You might need to go through the grief and hassle of changing password managers once a decade, IF the old one starts having security problems. In the last 15 years, I've switched password managers ONCE. But I happily have over 400 credentials in my profile, and all of them use unique, strong passwords that I don't have to ever remember (but can always check if I need to).
Amazing capture Kevin. I watched a documentary on Youtube several times, it's about how the RAF sent a Vulcan to bomb the runway on Falkland Island. The refueling involved was extradentary.

I think they would like us to believe that they "never forget" Kevin! Maybe so but it is only a matter of time mate!!
