Generally used to reduce the plane's weight in the case of an emergency landing, the dump and burn is a very cool display. http://stephengentle.com/photos/5/dump-and-burn/ http://stephengentle.com/photography/5/f-111-flyby/ Despite its age, the F-111 is a very sleek fighter jet. http://stephengentle.com/photos/5/f-111-flyby/ http://stephengentle.com/photography/5/dump-and-burn-2/ This time with landing gear out and wings swept forward. As opposed to the high speed dump previously, this flyby was much slower but still very impressive (and very, very loud!) http://stephengentle.com/photos/5/dump-and-burn-2/ http://stephengentle.com/photography/5/roulettes/ The Roulettes aerobatic team flies by in formation http://stephengentle.com/photos/5/roulettes/ http://stephengentle.com/photography/5/breaking-formation/ The Roulettes break formation http://stephengentle.com/photos/5/breaking-formation/ http://stephengentle.com/photography/6/cormorant/ A cormorant rests on a rock http://stephengentle.com/photos/6/cormorant/
