As some of you know, I work at Patuxent River Naval Air Station (also known as NAWCAD) in southern Maryland as an aeromechanical engineer.

The Air Traffic Control Tower pictures were taken during tours given to the public, although I'm not 100% sure whether it was just for base personnel or not. In any case, they let us take pictures... :-)

I rarely get to take pictures of aircraft flying around, though, mostly because you're not supposed to be shooting anywhere but recreational areas. However, on occasion I catch something good from one of them. I'll be collecting them as I go in this folder. Pictures are ordered chronologically from newest to oldest.
