A scary moment for the pilot and the photographer! Obviously something went wrong during a hectic Red Flag exercise recovery.I was following a Prowler on final for Rwy 03R with my camera, when suddenly this Viper appeared in my viewfinder, banking hardly to the left close to the ground, trying to avoid the Prowler in front of it. The pilot got all his hands full with this maneuver, applying power with the gear down and trying to get to the other Rwy 03L, however, finally decided to go around.
