F-16C Fighting Falcon 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Back in the day, I worked on F-16s (the old A and B models). The plane is a fighter pilot's dream and one of the sexiest looking planes ever designed.

Through the years the plane took some middle age weight and evolved into a much more capable multi-role fighter. Bigger engines, better avionics, more weapons, today's F-16 is an amazing aircraft.

F-15C Eagle 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

It's Friday and we all made it through another week! Here's a beautiful widescreen desktop background of the F-15C Eagle. I personally love the camo pattern the USAF started putting on the Eagles. Much better than the old monotone paint scheme.

Standard processing. Boosted the contrast, saturation, and sharpened it.

This shot lets you come for a ride in USAF B-52 bomber. Check out the eight rows of systems/engine gauges! It's a great angle to also check out the perspective a pilot sees when refueling.

F/A-18F Super Hornet 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

This shot has a dramatic look due to the camera panning with the aircraft and thus freezing the aircraft while blurring the background. Take a look and see for yourself.
