Photography jet fighters in their element while they pass fast and low gives you a true adrenaline kick. Their scream through the valley makes you almost forget that this is real military hardware, designed for combat missions. The plane you see was not designed as a model like you see on a fashion catwalk. The pilot inside is having a real tough time, manoeuvring his plane through the canyon: train as you fight, fight as you train! This Dutch F-35A of 323 Test and Evaluation Squadron (323 TES), based at Edwards AFB (CA), buzzed some photographer heads!
