Re: Warbird pictures
Somewhere near Niagra Falls?
BTW Say a prayer for the fallen Blue Angel who died at the Cherry Point Marine Air Station in South Carolina today. Too early to say why he crashed.

Re: Warbird pictures
Australian air force F-111 makes a surprise high-speed pass over an airfield building during an airshow. The guy at upper-right appears to be in the shadow of the jet's nose.

Re: Warbird pictures
Bill,
That Aardvark is a little too close, wouldn't you say! I would love to be the guy up top on the tower. He probably got the surprise of his life and one he probably won't forget. Aardvarks used to buzz the water tower of the plastics plant I used to work at in the early 1980's. Always scared the crap out of us......  Awesome image! Thanks. Steve

Re: Warbird pictures
Here's another F-111 image. Always like this. The RAAF call this the dump & burn.

Re: Warbird pictures
I'd guess that the 111 is doing about 450-500 knots. The F-111 is a giant sled and it's favorite configuration is 500+ on the deck. Those Aussie guys are nuts down under and stuff like this is strictly routine at their airshows.
