F/A-18F Super Hornet 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper
Hi everybody! Here's a wallpaper of an F/A-18F cockpit view. This pilot looks out the canopy of his F/A-18F Super Hornet as he conducts a low pop-up maneuver above Panamint Valley near China Lake, California.
I love in-flight pictures!

C-130 Hercules Cockpit 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

CH-53 Refueling With A C-130 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper
Great shot here of a CH-53 catching fuel from a C-130. You can see the drogue chute middle left. Check out the airspeed -- it says 90 knots. Even with full flaps, that's got to be real close to the C-130's stall speed.

Here's an interesting shot of a U-2S cockpit. Notice the pilot is in a full pressure suit? When you fly aboove 50,000 feet, those suits are mandatory. I love the new cockpit they put in these planes.Enjoy!

USN F/A-18C Fighter Pilot 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper
You have to love fighter pilot gear. The helmet, flightsuit, and gloves rock. I'd wear the same stuff flying Cessna 172's but it would be overkill. I guess the only way I could wear it would be to join the Civil Air Patrol.Here is a fighter pilot sitting in an F/A-18C. Great shot.
F-16 Break Turn 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

This shot lets you fly along in the cockpit with the United States Navy Blue Angels. The Blue Angels fly F/A-18C Hornets painted in the famous blue and gold. I'd love to get a ride with these guys.The photo required adjustments in levels and contrast. I added a slight saturation and sharpening to finish it off.
