According to the local daily rag, the Navy was out earlier this week shooting air to airs of two EA-18's and an EA-6 all in centennial colors over the Seattle area, so far I've been unable to find any of the photos on line-

This is all i've seen so far.

The jet noise over my work was a nice surprise. I just wish I had known they were coming so I could've run outside.

Looking forward to seeing what they shot.

67Cougar,
Thanx! I don't know why the USN is waiting to release the stuff they shot here unless they forgot to take the lens cap off :oops:
