For my European friends, here's a great shot of a French Mirage 2000 refueling. Great looking fighter jet.

Hope the New Year is treating you well. Hard to believe it's 2010. I remember Y2K and all the drama.

For this shot, I added a deep yellow color filter and adjusted the contrast. I think it turned out well.

Don't know if any of you remember Jane's F-15E, but I was a beta tester for that sim and loved it. The whole Jane's brand was excellent.

Enjoy!
