*candid* Pilot and his craft

[mdmedicgod]

Shot this at Washington Dulles a few days ago. I guess he needed to stretch after that flight. (aircraft RAF Jaguar)

What plane is that? Looks like Jaguar to me, but why would it be in the US?!

Oops, that was me!

I think I saw this dude take off the other day.......

Well, he certainly would stay close to his aircraft in near 'enemy territory' :lol:

Best regards,

actually he was straggler from the rest of his squardron. Headed to the an airforce base in Nevada for exercises. The RAF are regulars at Washington Dulles. The RAF have flight office at Dulles. In fact the VC-10 was there the other day.

Ah right, cool! US & UK often seem to share bases, frequently see Tornados at RAF Lakenheath in UK (Which, as the name might not suggest, is a huge USAF base)

Nice shot Patrick, love the detail you captured of him working on his flight book under his ride.
