When you get the opportunity to take in introduction flight in an F-16, you don’t turn it down. In fact, you hire someone to photograph the event for posterity. Which is exactly what the gentleman here, Sheriff Leon Lott, did. I attempted to weasel my way into another F-16 by trying to convince everyone that an airborne, plane to plane shot, would be essential to the series. Sadly, everyone at the airbase seemed intent on cheating me out of a flight. So I had to do the best I could from the ground.
Flight of the F-16
I like the one of him standing with his head down….like he’s resigning himself to the fact that he’s going to lose his lunch when he gets up in the air!
Lucky guy that Sheriff. Too bad you didn’t get a chance to take a flight. Nice photograph of the F-16 in flight, though.
