USS Dwight D Eisenhower-Part deux

Hi all,
Apologies to those who wanted to see some more photos from the IKE but I have been a bit busy at work lately….why is it that work always gets in the way of pleasure. Anyway, hope you like these shots.

All the best

Si

Point of impact…damm the undercarrage takes some shock!

Fantastic. Especially like the F/A 18 touchdown and the Hawkeye about to trap. The cat shots of the 18 are pretty awesome to. Definitely a case of right place, right time.

Si,

Thanks for the vid link, I enjoyed that and Im still mooching around the website 😀 Below is a link to my very own EA6, and when I get everything else done on my table (Canberra PR7 & SHar FRS1) I have an A6 to go with it and I look forwards to more of your photos. Bex

Si,

Amazing photo’s and thanks for sharing. If u have anymore of the EA6’s Id love to see them, Ive always the A6’s & their variants, and the EA6 is the last one left I believe 😡 Bex

P.S: Went round Pompy today, noted all 3 of our Carriers at home and a heck of lot of the others ships at home too. Glad the RN is getting a rest for a change.

Thanks Bex for the comments, I will upload some more Prowler shots for you. Glad you saw our carriers today, unfortunatley Invincible (she was in the basin) is now decomissioned and Ark is taking over as Fleet Flagship soon. Lust has just come back from a very successful deployment to the States and embarked 12 Harrier AV8Bs as well as an MV22 Osprey. She will be embarking some Spanish EAV8Bs very soon, looking forward to that.

Here is the link to a small video of the AV8Bs.
