EA-6B Prowler. They love to fly low and fast through the Mt Rainier area - at night.
Great fun - unless you are camping / asleep when they come over head !!
Prayers for the crew. I hope they made it out in time.

No fooling. They've snuck up on a couple of times when I've been camping. The first time I actually saw the plane first and wondered who would bring a RC model plane camping - about the time I finished that thought the guy went by about 50 feet above the river and really hauling the mail - the concussion almost knocked me down. For some reason I thought they phased out the EA6Bs from Whidbey - guess not...
