The B-1's are out of KNKX. The 3-ship F-18 flight is out of KNLC (rwy 32R every 5 minutes), the 2-ship F-18 flight is out of KNID. The F-18's were actually recorded with the stock XP-9 F4 on low burner, full fuel, no weapons loaded.

The heat blur on the F-4 is stock, it's not an edited photo

The second-to-last screenshot (http://controllers.pilotedge.net/~keith ... -4_122.png) sure looks like I'd imagine a low level MTR... Glad I don't fly that low except during TO or landing!

Hi Doug, that one was taken in an MOA.

The MTR traffic is equally low, they just don't turn quite as hard.

Video of flying along an MTR in the F4 with 3 F/A-18's.

Note: at the time of posting, the HD version wasn't yet available, I expect it will be available later today.

If nothing else, enjoy the clouds after the departure as we fly west into the sunset. I'd never seen visual effects like that until now!
