Boeing Goshawk (15-5204)

I'm counting myself quite lucky to have captured these three visitors. I had received word three weeks ago from the unit CO that a six-ship flight would be passing thru Reno enroute home to Cold Lake. Then, just eight hours before their scheduled arrival, I was again contacted by the CO and told there had been a change of plans and they would all be going to Salt Lake instead. I immediately began trying to find some way of contacting either Michael R., Jourdan L., or Nate (all FA photographers in SLC) to notify them, but before I was able to do so, I received another contact. This time I was told that three were going to Colorado Springs and three would be coming here after all. So I hustled down to Reno and made it out on to the airport grounds just as these three were coming over the airport. They began the break just as I got my camera pointed into the sky. Dark blue against blue sky is not the easiest "last second" photo to get, but I got lucky and caught this single capture of 155204 as it broke left away from the formation.

Excellent catch of that "sequence for landing"! 10 star shot! Thank you Gary!

Nice catch, Gary!
