I might be off to Las Vegas soon and I was wondering whether it was worth swinging by Nellis when I went downtown to see the Oval there (I am going to try to get a go in a NASCAR) - does anyone know anything about this?

hello Zander Sir.
Although i'm Canadian i'm shure it very much would be worth youre while to drive down there.
I'm shure it's one of the most buseyest in the usa.
i remenber just crossing the border (Niagra Falls)
there an Airport there also(not busey)
And i Saw 2 F-18 in Light Blue and white
ARTIC CAMO! That was so Cool.

I'd go there, but you can't go in the base( unless you're in the USAF or were in, at least thats what they said to me). But drive past the base, and you can see F-16s and a few F-15Cs parked, so I would check it out.

CLUNK, I would be more than happy to post a few photos. I'm not the best picture taker, but we'll see what comes up. Photos some time after the 15th I think.

My Navy squadron did some joint training with the Air Force at Nellis back in the 90's. Our hangar was right next to the F-117 stealth fighters. Lots of air traffic. Most of the guys just cared about the legal prostitutes in the area instead of aircraft.

You know the saying, Young, dumb, and full of ..... \:D

OBTW, I wasn't one of those guys.
