Greetings all, a busy Saturday means that I have have had to reach into the ol Grabbag for the Saturday Sortie this evening. So we are going to jump right in with the pics...

A nice inflight pic of a restored F-86 Sabre leads off tonight's Sortie.

Leading off the Century Series of fighters in this Evenings Sortie grabbag is this profile pic of an F-100D.

A pair of Republic F-105 Thunderchiefs pose while passing Mt Rainer IIRC the caption correctly. That is the two seat G model in front with a single seat D model in the rear.

An F-106 from Cape Cod gets caught by the camera.

A couple of more modern aircraft pics to close out the Sortie.

William Gilson catches an F-22 making a pass in burner judging from the shock diamonds behind the craft.

And an F-35 Lightning II closes out the Saturday Sortie.

Editorial note for next weekend, will not have a Friday Flyby as I will be at the youngest daughter's graduation. Yea after 6 years of higher ed the kids out of college and working:-) I hope she gets a really good one so I can retire. LOL

Well gotta run see ya all later, hope everyone has a great week.

Regards

Thanks, alfa, for this Saturday Sortie...((HUGS))...love the paint job on the F-86 Sabre, and thinking the F-35 Lightning II looks a tad strange.

Congratulations to your youngest daughter on her graduating from college. Good job, Dad!!
