Great shoot... wonderful work !!!
Superb shot of this fighter jet.
Fantastic shot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So cool. It is still a great jet after all these years.
outstanding fast action. I missed an opportunity last night as a AF Boeing 707 tanker came over at a low altitude and the low west sun had it illuminated orange.usually I can hear them coming miles away but my house was blocking the sound
You KNOW I would love this! We have F-15's based in the UK so I can hear it now, though maybe not quite as loud.. (Except at Duxford! lol, they do them there sometimes) Great shot mate! Rob
Nice shot of a great plane.
Very nice shot!!!!!
Great POV of the awesome Bird of prey!
None of the military aircraft that performed (F-15, FA-18, F-22) broke the sound barrier. They get in trouble if they do. But all high-speed passes were extremely low and close to the speed of sound, after all this is a racing venue, where the competitors advertise the Reno Air Races as the fastest motor sport in the world. These military demos don't want to be outdone by the World War II fighters that compete. Folks that come to this event don't want to see an aircraft, say a F-15 flying at 500 ft above ground at 400 mph for instance. All the demo flights were close to Mach 1 (speed of sound) and this particular aircraft could not be heard from the photo shows it. During a demo by a FA-18 'Super Hornet' the PA guy talked to the pilot and asked him how fast he was going. The pilot's reply .98, that is Mach .98 - Mach 1 is the speed of sound. At that speed the sound arrives just about when the aircraft does. At supersonic speed - depends how much over the speed of sound and how high, the aircraft flies by without sound, and the sound arrives a fraction later and usually with a boom.
GREAT SHOT
KOOL SHOT
A wonderful action capture of this very fast moving plane. I don't know how you managed to get him in your sights so quickly. I hope your jacaranda survives as they are such beautiful trees.
An amazing shot!!! Very cool.
Wonderful action shot!
Well done, with nice heat waves!
