Are not very good for photos, but on the rare occasion it all seems to work out. I just happened to notice this guy doing touch and go's, and happened to have my camera

It's the airforce treating the 737 like a fighter plane (they went completely sideways on several occasions, aswell as stalling it then climbing like mad)

That's not what monkey^ said...

I thought it was an approach at first, but then I thought twice becuase all of the shots seem to be from the same position...

They were taken during the approaches, however, the aircraft was doing left and right traffic patterns, hence the different angles.
