nice photo Larry 

Not my picture but thats the same plane I saw flying that day. I wish I had my camera. Would have been some sweet photos since it was flying so low.

A few years back, Arizona hosted the Superbowl.  The stadium is just 4 miles from my house.  The military flyover come directly over my house.  I was outside when I heard the noise.  Was looking in the direction of the sound as it appeared, very low, very slow, B2 Stealth bomber.  The most terrifying machine I have ever seen.  Pictures don't do it justice.  Sitting on the runway doesn't do it justice.  I have trouble describing how it made me feel, I was dizzy afterward.

I will second the creepy feeling seeing that airplane.  I was flying to O'hare and the controller called out traffic.  It was the B2 in a holding pattern a thousand feet above us.  There was a thin cloud layer between us.  It was like seeing a ghost.

Very cool Bullet!!

A few years back I was driving across the dam of our local lake and I see this plane doing acrobatics and I immediatly recognize it as some sort of warbird. I get a better look at it and it has Japanese markings. So I pull over and watch , getting all excited because I think it's a Zero. Then I realize it's a damn Ki-43. It was one of the replicas that were being built in Ft Worth at the time. I called Bear76 like a giddylittle school girl. No pics of course

Sweet. I grew up just along the coast from there. My Gran lived on Cumbrae - the island in the background. Spent many hours sailing in those waters.

Hi chaps!

Some 18/20 years ago I saw what I believe to be a Lancaster flying over Lisbon - the 4 engines and twin tail point to one - heading in the general direction of the Portela airport in a landing pattern. Also might be preparing to land at the small Alverca OGMA airstrip...

Does anyone know if it was a Lancaster and what was doing in Portugal? Maintenance at OGMA? Simple scale on a longer flight? I wonder...

Cheers,
