Great shots. I was scrolling up to see if you mentioned what you were taking them from - high AoA shots - droopy, vapor, landing gear, etc. A skyvan! holy moly, they must have been on the edge of falling out of the sky!
I worked on the f-35 program for a while and the lead pilots from around the world would meet at China Lake each year to test fly the first birds. My customer would be scrambling to put together presentations for them - last minute prep, and asked me to get them out of the office. So, I took them golfing on the base's oiled surface course in the desert. Golf was the setting, but It really was an international, professional comedian competition. Fighter pilots don't need weapons to kill you; their jokes and pranks were enough.
