The Photocall was most excellent.  The folks at El Centro were very accomodating and really made sure we got what we wanted.  A bit of time out at the LSO shack while T-45's, EA-6's, F-18's and a C-130 were flying...it don't get much better than that!  Just one photo out of the 10+ gigs I shot...

Oh yeah, close is awesome!   The sound and feel of a Hornet 25 feet from you in burner.  Ohhhh yeahhhhhh,

We started the day with some time on the tower catwalk.  Prowler crew was good enough to do a display of the wing folding system.
