You're just hammering it from the guardrail Harvey. Super brace of images sir.

Thanks Jeff, I recently bought a pick up truck so I can park at locations where I can be a little more mobile reference shooting over the fence. Since we'll be on this runway until about Feb. I plan on shooting from this area for the foreseeable future. It is great light from about 4 to 5pm till sunset, so far the F35s are usually down before this time. That may change soon, I'm told they'll start night flying possibly Nov. or Dec.
