F22 Raptor with F15 Aggressors 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Hey all, it's great to be back. The trip to London and Paris was excellent and I recommend you visit these great cities at least once in your life.

Also, a BIG thanks to Pieter who helped out during the week. He did a great job and the wallpapers posted are excellent. Great job Pieter!

Today's wallpaper is a formation flight consisting of the F-22 and F-15 Aggressors. I doubt there's much of a fight there but the F-22 gets good target practice.

Nice shot of the old and new generation air superiority fighters. This shot gives you a great opportunity to spot the many exterior changes between the generations.

Nice shot of an F-15D in a rare camo pattern. Don't see these every day!

The F-15 family (A-D) had some trouble lately after one crashed due to a structural failure. They've been inspecting the rest and found that other F-15s have similar fatigue cracks. Hopefully they'll find an engineering fix so the Eagles can continue to serve.

Come along for a ride in the backseat of an F-15D Eagle while catching some gas from a KC-135. I love pictures that put you right in the action. Only wish I was there for the ride.

I don't know what it is, but I love the aggressor paint scheme. This shot makes a great widescreen background. Enjoy!

Back when I was at Nellis AFB, the Aggressor squadron used to fly F-5s. I was there just as they transitioned to F-16's. When I saw this amazing shot, I couldn't believe my eyes. The Aggressors are now flying F-15s!

The shot immerses you and gives a great feeling of "being there". The color schemes on these jets are unique to USAF aircraft.

This shot took a little more work than usual. The original shot was dark and I had to really be careful about blowing out highlights. Cropped it to 1680 and did the standard adjustments. I think the end product is outstanding.

F-15D 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper.

In cockpit shots are some of my favorites. This shot just off Hawaii gives a sense of the beauty pilots get to see on a daily basis. Makes me wish I was there.

Shot is cropped to 1680. The exposure is a little high so it took some level adjustments to bring it down. Adjusted contrast and gave it a slight saturation boost. Finished it with some sharpening.
