Thanks for sharing. Being stationed near Death Valley, I did the same thing in the Phantom quite often 40 years ago. Thanks for the memories.

Same here, loved the sound during familization in Scotland, the Grampians caused an unique echo.

Nice shots!
I don't particularly like the F35, looks rather docile.

Not only did I get to see F 22's fly in South Carolina, I also got to see a squadron parked at the Hilton head airport.

Are you certain you weren't seeing the F-35s being flown out of MCAS Beaufort (training home for Marine aviators flying the new jet)? Because I saw quite a few of those in the skies during my recent trip to Hilton Head.

RAF and Italian Air Force pilots are also training on the F-35 there.

My first thought on hearing them was f/a 18's. But the tail setup is distinctive. and I saw them at the Hilton Head airport, gold canopies and all. I took a picture then also, but my phone focused on the raindrops of my window instead of the airplanes.
