McChord Airshow pics

[SUBMAN1]

Might as well start off with the vulnerable F-16! I tried to take pics that people would not normally take. Intakes, exhaust systems, etc. Anyway, I'll do one aircraft at a time as I get time.

Might as well start off with a pic of the Thunderbirds!

On to the static F-16 displays:

In this shot, you can see the 20 mm M-61:

The small holes that you are seeing along the edge is where they dump raw fuel in and ignite it. If you look close, just below center right on the turbofan, you will see a small tube - that is obviously a tempurature sensor! Around the outside, you can see fuel lines (tubing). Told you I look for the not so obvious shots! :D:

The vulnerable F-16, followed by several pics of its' exhaust pipe? I just HAD to bring it up.

Here is the F-22! You weren't allowed close to it, but that didn't stop me from trying to get some semi-close shots! :D

The vurnerable A-10. Also slated to be replaced, but I still think its a mistake. That gun is indispensable.

Here is the cockpit. I talked to the pilot about how comfortable those seats are. The answer is, he can stand about 45 minutes to an hour. Bad part is, the longest flight he has been on lasted over 8 hours! Ouch! Apparently they are solid metal with a thin layer of padding!:

He's only pointing it out because you are saying vulnerable when you probably mean venerable.

He's only pointing it out because you are saying vulnerable when you probably mean venerable.Thank you! Yes, i misspelled what I meant!

Need to go buy a new pair of shoes first though so maybe I'll post this Yak-11 pics and then do a few more when I get back.

Now this was a bit of an unfair fight in my opinion, but there ya go. The MiG-17 had its high drag landing gear down? Maybe that makes it aerodynamically fair against the Jet car, but still!!!!

MiG crosses the line at 200 MPH, so maybe it is a fair fight since it has a 200 MPH speed advantage from the get go!:

Hey, the guy probably didn't have enough money to buy a Russian engine. Can't let a grand bird like that just sit and rust! It probably isn't the cost of the Russian engine, but the shipping costs that kills ya.:smug:

Man, one thing that is hard to imagine, even from these pics, is the size of this plane! Not only could you fit your house in one of these, you could probably include your neighbors houes, and still have room for a tank! What it reminds me of is a shopping mall! Its a long walk simply walking down that cargo bay!!!

Here is the view you get from the turret. You could select normal optics, or FLIR of course. FLIR choices are hot cold or cold hot of course. Zoom factors on the FLIR side are not as extensive as for the normal optics. I should have taken a pic of the joystick that controls all this, but I forgot. I was too busy screwing around with checking things out! :D Anyway, the basic controls are the middle HAT controls zoom level, and the to manuver the turret, you have to hold the pinky switch. Looks similar to a FLCS controller actually. I was a little low on ammo though! :cry: I figured the best shot was to show a hot on white FLIR image so you can see what you can see out of this thing:

Now here is one 'VERY' hard aircraft to photgraph! I was completely blown away that this plane was here and on public display! I've personally never seen one in real life, and I probably will never ever again see one in real life! Only 16 exist, but these are 16 EXTREMELY scary planes to any foreign power. Think SR-71 was America's premeir spy plane? Think again!

The Soviet Union was so scared of this plane, that the risked shooting down a normal airliner in the 1980's just to make sure this plane was not flying near its airspace! They actually shot down a normal airliner in this case, killing hundreds. :nope:

Today, lets just say its capabilities have grown 10 fold. Talking with these guys, they of course will not tell you a single thing. So, this planes mystery continues for me. You can get an idea of its capabilities though by simply analyzing it. Any electronic transmission from a cell phone to a radar sig to a sat transmission does not escape this plane. It makes of the three teir survallance package of AWACS, Joint STARS, and Rivet Joints. Most people know nothing of what this plane does and few actually know what it can do. Anyway, I have plenty of pics to share:

-S

PS. I'm sure they would shoot you on site if you tried to get close to it. It had the same restriction the F-22's had.

Recognized it as soon as I saw the "Thimble Nose" in the first pic. :) I wonder when the RC's got those new turbofans. I always thought they still used turbojets...

Anyway, yep, that's one hell of a "spy plane." Must be interesting to operate its systems.

Here are some interesting pics of the KC-135 that you may have never seen before. I was given the full demo on how to refuel an aircraft. Got some interesting shots too!.

http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/2239/cimg0769lq9.jpg


Outside looking in! As you can see, this whole panel will recess so that a better view can be had for the refueler officer:

http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/8164/cimg0763wi8.jpg


Here is the refueling station. There are two beds, one to the left and one to the right of me. And yes, I am laying on my stomach and my feet are clamped in behind me. Most of this panel is self explanitory, and yes the lever on the left controls the extention of the probe. I would have retracted the window as seen above, but I got instruction from the refueling officer that this would have started up the hydralics for the boom, and that was probably a not so good thing with people walking around! :D:

http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/7164/cimg0764sr6.jpg


Here is the window cover in place and what it looks like from the bed:

http://img253.imageshack.us/img253/3439/cimg0765oy3.jpg


And to make sure aircraft stay in sight at all times, here is an extra mirror so you can see them under the belly:

http://img67.imageshack.us/img67/37/cimg0767mw0.jpg


This is the actual control stick below and on the right of the bed so that you can actually 'fly' the boom. And interesting note, for fighter aircraft, the boom has enough power to push them around as needed. I was told that a common practice in Vietnam for damaged aircraft that couldn't make it home, the boom operator would hook in and drag the damaged aircraft and fly it back across friendly lines! Amazing huh?:

Recognized it as soon as I saw the "Thimble Nose" in the first pic. :) I wonder when the RC's got those new turbofans. I always thought they still used turbojets...

Anyway, yep, that's one hell of a "spy plane." Must be interesting to operate its systems.Dunno! I assume they are constantly getting upgrades. These planes are more important than most people realize!

Hey, are you in any of these pictures?I don't think so. I'm the one taking all of them!

He hands off that airspace to these guys who monitor their section:

When an enemy contact is found, that is handed off to these guys:

Old steam guage cockpit. I'm sure the newer AWACS have probably gone glass cockpit:

I didn't go on a C-17 due to lack of time, but I got some shots of them. I've been on them many times before though.

One thing I find amazing - not one single C-141 is to be found on this airfield. There used to always be a mixture at McChord:

One thing a C-17 tail is good for! Shade! :D

Figured I'd finish off what I have left here. This will finish 80% of all the pics I took. I should have taken more, but you know, I'm playing with all the controls and stuff and forget!

I never did find out how much a B-25 ride costs! i'd like to take a look if I could! Never did get around to it:
