What a beautiful creature of the sky! I sent this pic to a friend who enjoys drawing aircraft of this type. I thought the lines of the aircraft were perfectly captured in this shot. Clear, clean, beautiful shading, excellent backdrop and one can see the pilot!

A visitor from Singapore posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Thank You, Baldur, for sharing this Superb pic of the Eagle in it's element.
While MiG and Sukhoi jets are Better airshow performers, the F-15C's close cousin, the "E" model with the F-16Cs are the Real Deal of combat jets.
Both have Sterling Battle Proven records in air combat.

It will take a long time for me to find another picture to replace this one on my desktop! It's a close-up shot and that's how we like it - close enough to see the "face" of the pilot! This has got to be one of the best photos I have seen, and I usually don't like photos of military aircraft!

A visitor from - posted Thu November 3, 2005:
This is my favorite angle of the F-15!!
The clouds are nice too, fabulous shot!
