These came in following a local thunderstorm with sunlight peaking through clouds gave them a different appearance as they flew past, the paint finish is very interesting stuff !

That 2nd image is great...really gives off a feel for how effective that paint work could be.

It certainly is... Do you need some type of military clearance to take these pictures? I am frighten of taking pictures near civil or military airports just in case they bundle me up and send me to Guantanamo.
