The early footage flying over the Cascade Mountain range is about normal operating altitude, day or night, good weather and bad headed for the range at Boardman OR. to shake up the 'taters growing there.
It's beyond impressive to be sitting in West bound traffic on I-90 East of Snoquaime Pass on a hazy overcast day and seeing a 65000 lb jet zipping down the neutral ground between lanes at a few hundred feet :shock: They fly low over the house and I just snuggle down in the matress a little more, always an airshow over my house.

Very cool! We were overflown by this VAQ-209 bird on a cruise from Baltimore to the Bahamas back in July 2011.

He made a few passes on the ship. To say it was an awesome surprise would be an understatement. I was lucky to have my camera with me!
