USAF and South Korean Air Force F-16 Formation Flight

Given the recent conflict between North Korea and South Korea, I figured it was a good time to show our solidarity with our South Korean Allies.

Here's a great shot of USAF and South Korean Air Force F-16C and D models flying in formation over Kunsan Air Base.

Giv'em hell boys!

F-16 Aggressor F-16C Red Flag 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Here's a great afterburner shot of an F-16 Aggressor jet fighter taking-off at Nellis AFB during Red Flag.

I was just out in Vegas again this last week and parked my car out near Nellis to watch the jets. That's one of my favorite parts of visiting out there.

Enjoy!

F-16C AB Takeoff in the Snow 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Check this one out. Here's an F-16C doing an early morning full AB takeoff on a snowy runway. Pretty dramatic looking. Gives you another indication of just how hot the afterburner flame is.

Blue Aggressor F-16C 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Another great shot here of a blue F-16C Aggressor aircraft refueling. Love it.

F-16C Mud Mission 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Today's widescreen wallpaper lets you fly along with a pair of F-16's on an air-to-ground (mud) mission. Pretty spectacular.

Weathered and Dirty F-16C 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Here's a rare shot of a weathered and thoroughly sandy/dusty F-16C. It's obvious that the wartime turn ratios and priorities don't include a peace-time wash cycle. Still, it's not even close to some of the Navy aircraft I've seen. Check out the leaks down the sides and in the back.

F-16C Aggressor Side Shot 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

This shot will make a great desktop wallpaper. Love it.

Pair of Belgian F-16s in Formation 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Beautiful pair of Dutch F-16's flying in formation. Great shot.

(edit-- thanks all for the comments. Being American, I'm not always familiar with the markings of other European countries. I've correct my comment above.)

F-16C Up Close and Personal -- 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Great shot here of the F-16C Fighting Falcon. Nothing like this fighter jet in the world. Hard to imagine that one day the USAF will be all F-35s and these beautiful planes will be history.

I've done a little more enhancement/artistic stuff with this shot so I'm putting it in the artistic category.

Jordan Dutton -- F-16C Photo 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

This excellent shot was sent to me from a photographer who visits this site named Jordan Dutton. He sent me some of his best stuff and wanted to share it with the rest of you.

He's got a site where he posts more of his photography. Be sure and visit Jordan Dutton Photography.

If you like the wallpaper, leave some comments here for him.

As always, if you have some great shots you'd like to share, please shoot me an E-mail.

F-16C CAMO Fighting Falcon 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Yeah, I can't get enough of the camo F-16's. Some of the sweetest fighter jets I've seen. Nice backdrop too (over Alaska).

Thunderbird Headshot 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Clean shot of a Thunderbird F-16C head-on. Who knows why they don't paint the radome?

F-16 EA-6B And B-52 Formation Flight 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Great formation wallpaper of a pair of F-16s, an EA-6B, and a B-52 Bomber. I so wish I was flying one of those F-16s.

I'm still working on that book I mentioned. I think it's going to be pretty cool.

F-16 Aggressor Formation Flight 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Sweet shot of two F-16 Aggressor squadron fighters in formation. I love the paint scheme.

Thunderbird at Sunrise 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Early morning is always filled with vibrant colors. Here's a great shot of a USAF Thunderbird F-16 in the early morning hours.

As a side note, I'm off to San Francisco again this week. Always a fun city to visit with great food and spectacular views (too bad I'm going there for work).

On another note, I'm working on a photo book filled with the best shots from the site over the last year. It might end up being a little pricey, but I'm hoping some of you will appreciate it.

Sunset F-16 Falcon 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Great shot here of an F-16 Fighting Falcon silhouetted against a bright sunset background. Makes a great wallpaper.

F-16 Up Close and Personal 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Wouldn't you love to be there? Thirty degree angled seat, side stick controller, fly-by-wire, and 30,000 lbs of afterburning thrust kicking you along. Nothing like it in the world.

F-16 Falcon In Flight 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

It's Christmas Eve here in the U.S. and I'm heading to Pensacola, FL to be with my wife's family. It's about 7 1/2 hours driving from here, but it's always a nice trip.

Today's widescreen desktop wallpaper is up-close shot of an F-16C in flight. I know the F-35 JSF is technically superior, but the F-16 has "mojo" (see Austin Powers).

F-16C Pilot 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Growing up this is what I used to dream about. Just me and a fighter jet flying through desert canyons. Best seat in the house.

F-16 Break Turn 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

This is what it looks like to sit in the back of an F-16 Falcon when your flight lead makes a break turn. Pretty amazing if you ask me.
