Grumman EA-6B Prowler

WTI is underway here in Yuma! I've been away and not able to get to the airport except for a few minutes last week when these folks showed up!
This is mid-field Yuma, late afternoon, heading southwest, shot from my favorite little lump in the desert near the perimeter fence.
And, I've tried to share this shot here several times (as a few of you have already seen it elsewhere) but either something changed on Flickr, or something dropped out of my brain and I forgot how to share. I think it was a brain (software) malfunction...

Always a cool aircraft, but very special in monochrome. Great shot and treatment Chris.

Today the US Navy bids an official final farewell to the venerable Grumman EA-6B Prowler during today's EA-6B Prowler Sunset being held at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, Washington. The US Navy's retirement of the Prowler will leave the US Marine Corps as the only operator of the Prowler.

March issue of AFM is out now with my article on the Marine Corps' transition to the new MAGTF-EW electronic warfare construct.

Incidentally, this is one of the two Prowlers that was inducted into AMARG yesterday.

Thanks guys. I know I've told the story to a few people, but there was so much dumb luck involved in getting this shot.
