You know, you come down the backside of the mountains and see Alamogordo and White Sands...You get your first sight of a stealth airframe and you just go nuts....:o)
I miss NM
I see those stealth planes regularly. Absolutely stunning to watch them do their excercises...especially when they fly a lot closer to the ground or buzz over the mountain tops of Siera Blanca whose elevation is 12,003 feet high.
Isn't that the truth. I was visiting Alamogordo back during the first weekend in April (Mostly for the Trinity Tour) but we went to White Sands National Monument the day before. While we were out there, some F-117's were practicing and flew over multiple times. I wish the camera had my long lens on it at the time so I could get some good pictures but I couldn't change in the middle of the roll or it would have trashed the film.
