Pardon my ignorance, but what are the two glowing objects? Other planes?

I'm building so far remote that the Air Force trains in the sky above. Dropping flares, dog fights and the like. Very cool.

The Eagle still looks fantastic after 30 or more years.

That particular Eagle was built in the late 70s.(There’s a 76 on the tail which designates when the contract for that block of Eagles was released)

Also, it Looks like (tough to read)the aircraft is from the Louisiana Nationl Guard.

Please pardon another basic question but are those extra fuel tanks on the wings of the F16? Great pic.

If you download the “large” file and look closely, you can see in the background another F-15 and F-22.

Cool.

I have to tell ya that these look like art work to me. Awesome nonetheless. After a few weeks in service ANY airplane gets a patchwork paint look due to corrosion control measures, etc. These two look too perfect. They are beautiful though, aren’t they.

Looks photoshopy to me. I guess “post processing” is standard now.
