	I continue in my hard RIGHT turn, pulling all the way around until I’m basically headed toward one of the egress waypoints.
	As I continue around to the right I can see the smoke billowing from both my strike and the attacks by my wingmen.
	That runway is definitely out of commission and though you can’t see it in this shot there were 3 or 4 MiG-19s sitting on the ramp on over by the control tower. Too bad I didn’t have a couple more bombs!
	Settling back down on a heading to intercept the egress course I re-engage the TFR and switch master modes to air-to-air. I start querying AWACS for bandits but the picture remains clear.
	With the aircraft comfortably under the control of the TFR autopilot I reduce the throttle to 75% and make sure my wingmen are catching up by giving them the “REJOIN” command.
	I switch the right MFD to place my position in the center instead of the bottom and immediately see the datalinked symbols of my ducks lining up behind me.

We have really stirred up the hornet’s nest though and as we pass by the fringes of another enemy airfield on the way outbound tracers once again slice the sky in front of us as enemy gunners seek revenge.
