GESO March recon vol. 1

LC

Thu, Aug 3, 2023 7:53 AM

Last weekend my friend Candice and visited the museum at March Air Base. Since it's only a few miles away, I treated it as a recon run and tried to get a couple photos of each plane, just to catalog them for my reference.  It turns out that there are a lot of airplanes there.

This album is fighters, attack planes, trainers, observation & recon and related.

We did luck out and the skies cooperated, so some of the photos actually turned out pretty nice.

I had my 18-270 on the K-3iii and my Irix 11/4 on my K-1.  In retrospect I would have been better off with the 15-30 on the K-1, though it was rather fun shooting with the superwide and just needing to remember to adjust the hyperfocal distance.

In honor of Dan, I started off with the F4s.

I was able to ID most of the planes in this album.  Some unidentified ones are:

614 is a Mig 27

The rest seem likely to be trainers, including the twin engined one.

Thanks, it's actually parked next to an aeroflot an2r, so that makes sense.

I did wonder if that was a Skyraider.  It just looks so petite in the picture.

Thanks, someone else ID'd it as a 23.  How to tell the diff?
Other than going back and getting better photos next time...

The rest seem likely to be trainers, including the twin engined one.

This album is fighters, attack planes, trainers, observation & recon and related.

We did luck out and the skies cooperated, so some of the photos actually turned out pretty nice.

In honor of Dan, I started off with the F4s.

I was able to ID most of the planes in this album.  Some unidentified ones are:

Two ways  On the 23, there is a vertical fin under the fuselage at the tail.  Not visible in your pic.  The elevator surfaces extend beyond the jet pipe on the 27, which does seem to be the case.  There is also a slight difference in the air intakes, not discernable here.  Otherwise, they are almost identical externally.
