They know we are listening 😂
I was tuned into a flight of F35's earlier when they started talking about the Mach Loop... if this isn't your reason to buy an Air Band Scanner, I don't know what is!

Happy 50th anniversary to the legendary F-16 Viper! 🐍
I've had the pleasure of capturing the F-16 a few times over the last couple years. It's such an incredibly awesome aircraft, lets hope they don't dissapear too quickly from our skies! 📸

The Final WC-135W Nuke Sniffer ☢️
Been revisiting the last shots I captured of a WC-135W with P&W TF33 turbofans, operating from RAF Mildenhall in 2022. After achieving 36,577 flight hours she was retired in September 2022.
Note the grease handprints left by MX on the engines!
