Gateway last year.

Joe, you sure you didn't sneak over to England to catch that WB-57? Looks like a normal RAF Mildenhall day to me!

[Ned Harris]

What a neat photo. There is no mistaking that weather for Arizona.

[Joe Copalman]

Agreed.  Sweet photo James.  I'm almost as crazy about B-57s as I am about A-4s and OV-10s.  Even better is that you caught it with the NASA cheatline.  It's been much less conspicuous lately, perhaps as a result of missions over Afghanistan.

This must be one of the most photographed planes around right now.

Great shots guys!

Y'all do get some pretty good WTH moments down there.  Any word on if/when the Guppy is coming back for the rest of those T-38s?
