The first F-35A was delivered to the 56th Fighter Wing at Luke Air Force Base this morning.

F-35A 11-5030

I was also at Luke for the arrival of the first two F-15 Eagles on November 16, 1974. I shot a movie on Super 8.

Thank you gentlemen.

Let's be a little more careful with our language Harvey. Gentlemen?

Seriously, I love the framing on your photograph.
