Conducting a "show of force" to keep the enemy at bay without having to drop ordnance
Flying over the mountains north of Kabul, Afghanistan.
Walking back to the operations building after flying close air support
Returning from a mission
Crowds gather on top of this trailer waiting for a controlled explosion of an old Russian bomb discovered near the runway
Watching a flight of alert jets takeoff after a priority scramble.
