A Royal Air Force Tornado Gr4 (ZG779 136) going about its business in the Lake District on a typically overcast and grey day.
I normally gravitate towards sunny weather but sometimes I just love the mood in shots like these, capturing the moody, glum atmosphere of the weather. I can almost taste the air.

The Swiss Air Force F/A-18 Hornet displaying at the Scottish International Airshow 2018 in Ayr, Scotland.
No apology if you get a Top Gun earworm from my title, I couldn't resist. I just loved the combination of the clouds starting to break, the heat haze, afterburners lit up, the vapour condensing on the wings and that slightest hint of distant sunlight reflecting on the fuselage.
With 10 years of flight experience in the Hornet, Captain Nicolas "Vincent" Rossier delivered an incredible display in challenging conditions. Captured handheld with my Canon 5D Mk III, EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens and EF 2x Extender III. If I had been more awake when I set off in the morning I might have remembered to take my monopod. Enjoy!

Gave the image another go, but in Black & White to complete the Cold War feel. Back in the 80s, Mn ANG stood alert in Germany, so this scene would be similar.
