'BANSHEE 11'
Lead jet of a pair, an F-16C belonging to the 555th Fighter Squadron "Triple Nickel" with the 31st Fighter Wing based at Aviano in Italy - low flying in the northern England last week.
During their TDY at RAF Lakenheath I noticed their routing was regular while in the Lakes which allowed me to research and recce an unused location for the good weather on my day off. The effort worked out, with 3 flights all taking the turn low.
With just myself there to enjoy the perfect conditions it was easily one of the most satisfying late afternoons I've spent on a hillside anywhere in the UK.
