RAAF F/A-18 pic

To the RAAF boys and girls,

Took this shot last year when the aircraft pictured came through Ayers Rock, Central Australia.

Thought you might like to check it out.

All the best for Christmas wherever you may be, keep up the good work.

Cheers,

Hollywood

p.s. If you'd like a higher res copy of this pic, pm me and I'll email you one. The original is around 17mb and I've only got a dial up connection so I'll shrink it a tad first!

A Hornet from ARDU punching holes in the sky over the rock. Nice pic mate.

Had he just flown an approach to the rock??
His gear is retracting -looks more like an airfield overshoot to me!

Don't be silly - he's shaking his fist (look closely) at 20-17
