That is a VERY haunting look. A very rare color pic from inside a fort in action. Think I have only seen a handful. Thanks for sharing.

Most pilots get that look at one point or another. While avoiding thunderstorms, or many of the other hazards commonly faced.

"109s at 3 o clock high". That is a hell of a picture, looks like some young boy growing old fast.

To me, that's the look of a young man who's convinced he's about to die.

Outstanding image! If you don't feel something after studying it for a few seconds, you're already dead inside.
