Great shot, talk about a rare line up - dare I say, even better image than the official
shots released by the Airforce - which are air to air! More please.

Thanks, believe it or not A97-450 (aircraft in the middle of picture) is actually on port

not actually in an offset line astern formation (which appears as an optical illusion);
rather formation is in the shape of a triangular wedge with each C-130 at an apex -
