That's a big beast. Is it tilted or was it really climbing that steeply?

not tilted, but where I was in relation to him the angle is a little exaggerated

Nice capture. As far as airplanes go, that is one ugly bird.

Pilot: Well we're on our way to McConnell AFB

Co-pilot: Again? Why can't we fly somewhere different?

Pilot: We're under contract with Boeing.

Co-pilot: Well, can we at least land somewhere different?

Pilot: Sure, there's this cozy little airstrip about 10 miles to the south. We'll grab some dinner, spend the night and fly out in the morning. No one will be the wiser.

Co-pilot: Cool

I can't believe they couldn't tell the difference. The strip they landed on had no tower, for Pete's sake. I wonder if they still have jobs.

The plane got out ok yesterday. Luckily for Boeing.

Here's one video. Based on airnav.com, the single runway at AAO is 6,101 feet long but only 100 feet wide.

To the OP, great photo! (Ugly plane. Looks like a whale about to calve.)
