Good Pic's ! With The Fighter Factory so close, I get fly-overs quite often, but I never have the camera handy.
The under wing insignia [star bar] looks funny...... or is it me ??

It sure is nice to hear those big internal combustion engines over the turbo props and jets you usually get

I'm just like Aaron, I just found this thread. Good job catching it with the camera. How many passes did it make?

It made two passes Thor. The first pass caught me unprepared (was still in bed ) but on the second I was ready!

I work next to a small airport and one time I left at the right time. A B-17 was just landing! My jaw dropped.

Holy cow, you got an Avenger flying over your house? Super awesome!

Here in town we mostly get UH-1s. The only military aircraft I've seen from another country is two Sea Knights.

Anyway, that is totally awesome and amazing. 8)

Wow I never saw this thread before! I happen to live under the flightpath of SFO. Occasionally, when it is very windy, the airliners fly REALLY low. Maybe a different route or something, but its very cool! Also the Collings Foundation bombers always fly over once a year along with their p-51c. Sometimes a black hawk or f-18 or something will fly over but thats very rare.

I think we're on a flightpath of some form for the Municipal Airport here or something. I've had the Snowbirds fly over and practice over where I can see them from my house, CF-18s buzz my house on a number of occasions as well as had (IIRC) an A-10, F-16, F-117 and something else which I can't remember fly over my house in formation. No WWII planes though! You're like Wildcat!

Great shots Andy! The front and rear aircraft look to be L-4s but(?) not sure about the biplane.

The biplane looks like a Tigermoth. Nice entertainment Andy.
