I hope all the photographers had ear protection - otherwise at that distance there will be burst ear drums

Very nice work on your Flickr page.

I probably should know where this is but I'm at a loss. Netherlands somewhere?

I was camping on the beach on Fraser Island many years ago when a F1-11 flew up the beach about 100 feet (or at least looked like it but probably wasn't) above us tipped his wings to wave. I could see the pilot sitting in the cockpit. Admittedly he wasn't going quite that fast, however the noise was deafening, but a fantastic sight just the same.
