Default What I can see flying level with my office window....

I work on the airfield at Farnborough where the airshow is. These are going to be flying past my office window all week, close enough to see the colour of the pilots eys.

Airbus - A340-600
Airbus - A380-800
US DoD - B-1B Lancer
SAAB - Gripen
MiG Corporation - MIG 29 OVT
Lockheed Martin - F-16 Fighting Falcon
Boeing - F/A-18F
Bell/Boeing - V-22 Osprey
Boeing - AH-64D Apache Longbow
Alenia Aeronautica - Tornado
Alenia Aeronautica - Aermacchi M346
Alenia Aeronautica - C27J Spartan
Hindustan Aeronautics Limited - ALH DHRUV
Hindustan Aeronautics Limited - IJT 36 Trainer
Raytheon - T-6B
Babcock Defence Services - Slingsby T67
Rolls-Royce - Spitfire

How is that...... All the car alarms in the car park get set off when the MiG flys over at about 200ft on full afterburner...... waheyyyyy!!!
