Well last week at plane camp...

Saw the RAPTOR do the tail hover

Saw a C-17 do a 360 turn inside the boundaries of Whitman Airport.

Saw and heard a Lancaster flying for the very first time

Ate lunch 6 feet away from Chuck Yeager.

Just seen from my Office window, a Eurofighter Typhoon , doing a low pass along Aberden airports main runway ..

Aberdeen is a Primary diversion base for all RAF aircraft based in Scotland , so we see a fair number of Tornado F-3's and GR-4's and even the odd Nimrod doing practice approaches , the idea being to get famliar with the ATC procedures, but to-day was the first Typhoon ,

The normal procedure is a run along the runway at a 100 or so feet , and then a fairly fast climb out , well after watching F-3 make their way up and away , all I can say is the Typhoon is LOT quicker ...

:banana::banana: - Airshow - don't need airshows to see fast jets!

Two Swiss F/A-18D's and a couple of Belgian F-16s. Didn't get any shots of the Hornets as departures are impossible to shoot at Kleine Brogel but did get some of the F-16s. Might post some more later if I can be bothered but weather was fairly crappy!

When I was out today trying to get a title changed for me oldest daughter she spotted a low flying aircraft and asked what it was. Wow it was a B17!!!!!! Don't know what aircraft but it was a B17. Made my day! This was in Canton Ohio around 10am.

Thanks Jake but unfortunately that was all the sun I got. Fortunately that base is only 40 minutes from here so not a huge loss and I didn't get soaked like you during your Shaw visit.

Well, not today. But we honeymooned last month in Colorado Springs, so....

A couple shots from the obligatory visit to the United States Air Force Academy. Beautiful place. Absolute must if you are in the area.

Just had a Seaking pass by low and fast :lol:

Quite a contrast in sound with the Lynx I saw a couple of days ago. The Lynx sounds fast, the Seaking sounds like pure power :rofl:

It'll be a happy-but-sad day when it's a Merlin that goes by low and fast.

:rofl:
