Sitting on a hillside in Wales in the sun watching jets fly by.

Not a bad Friday.

I take it there is a lack of planes and you are filling in time using your phone? (jealous jibe because its a nice day and I have to work)

Home again after a great ride! Those Welsh roads are very good fun - obviously at or below the posted speed limit!

There was a distinct lack of 'planes though. As I arrived, a Eurofighter Typhoon screamed overhead, chased by a Hawk. They often go around for a second pass through the gap, so I was ready for them!

Then it went very quiet. An hour and more passes with only a Hawk passing miles away.

There's an unusual sound in the air though.

One I've not heard before.

Then, like a rip in space opening up, this went through.

Ladies and Gennlemen,

An F-117 Nighthawk "Stealth Fighter"

WOW! That thing is stealthy!
