Some more shots of the flight from Holloman AFB, New Mexico, to the Tonopah Test Range, and eventually, Nellis AFB.


At 10,000 feet, over the range, bay doors open, ready to drop...



Practice mission is over, but it's still nearly 200NM back to Nellis... climbing left turn to rendezvous with the tanker...  
-notice the refueling door open




After taking on fuel... On a downwind at Nellis - Ted A320 passes over - heading to KLAS



Touchdown, chute deployed



After a long day, finally parked on the Nellis ramp.  Lots of aircraft here today.  On the right is a U-2 from Beale and a B-1B from Dyess.  Also in this shot are 3 A-10s from Davis-Monthan, no less than 9 Raptors, and 10 Vipers from both Hill AFB and Luke AFB.


Cheers!

The F117 will always hold a special place in my heart after seeing it in action...
