Description
Anyone who is into planes knows what I mean. You are going about your day, and then all of a sudden you hear an engine that usually isn't there! You know it's not a commercial airliner, so you race to the window with camera in hand!!!
Well this is what I do anyway! You will need to zoom, as even with my longest lens it was a fair way away.
If you are wondering, the aircraft is the most advanced fighter jet ever built, the F-22 Raptor.

Pretty rare sight here in the UK. Good fun trying to capture fast moving jets although I still have a soft spot for the old warbirds.

Now that's my idea of 'window shopping' :-) Top marks for an excellent capture, but a Gold medal for preparedness and agility in winning the race to catch this bird before it flew away......

A great shot Andrew and an amazing zoom!

Great shot Andrew. At full power it produces about 70,000 pounds of thrust and the air rumbles.Talking about aircraft, Luke AFB (where I practically live - I work out there, shop in the commissary there, and get my medication there), is scheduled to get 144 F-35s beginning next year. I can't wait. Currently Luke is the biggest training base for F-16s - but the F-35s are noisier. Fortunately everybody that counts is on board with getting the aircraft.
