Super Hornet by timerskine

Super Hornet

I managed (somehow) to get a shot of this Boeing F/A-18 Super Hornet as it flew directly overhead and below a small patch of blue sky in an otherwise drab overcast.

It's likely based at Naval Air Station Oceana, since both NAS Oceana and I are in Virginia Beach today (well, Oceana is here pretty much every day since it's a Navy base, but I am in VB today). It's not possible to tell which outfit it's with from this angle, and since there are 4 separate carrier air wings (with 4 squadrons each) based there, there's just no telling.

Cool!

Lucky with the patch of blue! You must have leant over backwards to get this angle!

@jon_lip I was looking almost straight up for this one. I stopped leaning back at that point (I'm no dummy)
