Caught a quick photo of an F/A-18 Super Hornet after it did a super low flyover in Death Valley. You could feel the heat!
Bonus snaps - I also saw two F117 basically giving me a buzz cut which was an unforgettable experience. I love planes so much.
@sdw Incredibly, the Top Gun anthem happened to be playing in the Music app when I saw these. Phenomenal shots!

@sdw I’ve seen YouTube videos where people go to this remote spot where Air Force planes do exercises. Is this where you went?

@sdw have you ever gone flying in something like a discovery flight? Would probably make you enjoy planes even more haha
@sdw shot with? (Don’t tell me SE…)

@sdw cool! Guess Star Wars canyon is still closed for military traffic?

Didn't know you were into airplanes. I am too. It's been a while though...

@sdw wow - that’s one heck of a livery on the F-15. Here’s the story: https://taskandpurpose.com/culture/air-force-f-15-paint-job-stars-stripes/
We salute this F-15 fighter jet for rocking the most 'Murica paint job ever

Now that’s what I call an American Eagle!
