    Not when they're flying over your house every 15-20 minutes (for at least an hour) sometime past midnight. :p

    Here is F-15C 80-033. First picture she is based at Keflavik, Iceland.
    2nd and 3rd is at Nellis AFB, Fighter Weapons School. 4th is the Pratt and Whitney F-100 that powers 80-033. She is now at Missouri ANG. Notice that the cone says "This Engine runs on Krispy Kreme".

    Here is 80-024. It was assigned to the 36th TFW when this picture was taken in 1987. Next she was assigned to the 33rd FW at Eglin AFB. This picture was taken at NAS Jacksonville in 2004. She is now assigned to the 64th Aggressor Squadron at Nellis AFB. Picture taken in 2007.

    I've never been a fan of the B-2 Spirit,but one did the flyover at the Jaguars game this past sunday. I was quite amazed! It was larger than I thought and didn't do as good of a flyover as our FANG F-15s do but it was spectacular!

    The AC-130 is badass! I've heard many stories how it was at the right place at the right time. I'm glad you're here.

    This year is the 50th Anniversary of the first flight of the McDonnell F-4 Phantom II. I believe the first flight was on 27 May 1958. So with this year almost over, I thought it would be nice to post up some badass Phantoms.
    1. QF-4E assigned to Tyndall AFB,FL. This is a drone that will eventually be shot down during WSEP (Weapons Systems Evaluation Program).
    2. F-4C Photo Phantom. This is the last production F-4C to come off the production line at St Louis.
    3. German F-4Fs over the Atlantic for their last trip to the US before retirement.
    4. Turkish F-4E. The Turks have done well with their Phantoms having been updated not too long ago.
    5. 50th Anniversary F-4F over the Atlantic.
