Eight bombing missions in Iraq I presume?

Was that picture taken from underneath a hydraulic testing rig? Or did you
have a *very* big pair of ear defenders? :-D

Jamestown Airshow in South Australia.

Many years ago, I was standing on the edge of rthe runway at Canberra (yes
the edge) when an F111 was taking off. It was as quiet as anything as it was
approaching me. Memory may be playing tricks but in my had there was no
sound but I am sure there was some. Anyway, I was using an old hasslebald
with a manual wind on so I only really had one sho. So I prefocussed on a
spot and waited for it to arrive. After I took the shot, I lowered the
camera and watched it roll past me. Even as it was level with me it was
extremely quiet but at the moment the engines passed me I was treated to the
loudest bang I have ever heard in my life. I don't recall any roar or
anything after just the BANG as everything hit me all at once.

The atatched photo is it scaned about 10 years ago on old technology so it
isn't great but you get the idea. Note the special weapons confige on it.
