KC-135

Pease International Tradeport, NH view map

At lunch there were a bunch of people lined up at the end of the runway, on my way back, I realized why. There were a couple of our (NH ANG) KC-135's doing approaches. I took 89 photos, though I had some decent 'standard' aircraft shots, I really like this one with the distortion from the exhaust. This KC actually landed, I have a few more shots of it leveling off. It may have done a touch 'n go, I was putting my gear away and didn't follow it through.

I need to catch the planes in the evening on approach. The best angle is from the other side of the runway, which is the golf course. Golf season's here, I should bring my gear with me when I play (the blue course has the best angle for photos, not good for golf, narrow fairways...).
