That's a very different and very dynamic angle Ned.  Early crosswind departing 11L ?

Jay: The Desert Vipers are leaving soon and they have really been putting on a show these past couple of weeks. This one just completed a low flyby and then roared up to go around and get back into the landing pattern.

Even sexier with a little blue hanging off of it. Now in dedicated UAE paint minus the AZ code and tail stripe and faux USAF registration numbers gone. Gonna miss these guys.

Awe hell.

Killer catch.  Ordnance certainly balances out the top-heavy airframe.

Just wait until they are carrying wing tanks!
