Modern Combat Jets 

Pictures of modern combat aircraft - and a few historic ones too - at Fairford Airshow 2006

These pics have been resized for the web, at the detriment of some quality. If you really want a better version drop me a line website.mail @ madaxeman.com as I have the originals of these - and a load more and I could probably put them on a CD if you wanted. 

I also have some movies I am hosting on youtube. Click here to see the, or see the sample below:
