Tried for a few banking shots during the arrival.
Not the easiest with all the trees blocking the view.

For the second departure we went to the 24L side, but due to the heathaze it was hard to make clear shots here.
Nevertheless, the light was amazing and one shot just had to stand out

We tried to get the arrival on the other side to get some shots of the F-16s turning away, but the BULLDOG flight came back early due to smoke in the engine of J-011.
Because J-063 had a lot of mission time left, they went for a lot of approaches.

STING flight came back with an ILS approach, full stop, so nothing fun there
Luckily METAL flight came back with an overhead break and both of them made a touch and go, one of them on runway 24L.
It came straight over us, low, fast and loud and pulled up just behind us, making the sand blow away

17. I know it ain't a sharp picture, but what do you expect when you are shaking and having a heartbeat of 300 after an F-16 raced over your head
