so you get to see commercial airliners? I get F-22s at about 6,000 feet 4-5 times a day. And occasional black helicopters.

We also get F-18s, and, of course, McDonell-Douglas flies out of Lambert. Sometimes we get blacked out aircraft flying overhead.

To use a much overused cliche; "awesome" cloud on the video intro!  More than enough to get 'ol Flanker lookin' for the nearest bunker to cower in!  I've seen formed funnel clouds up close twice; fortunately neither touched down....................though both made me flee for that bunker!   

F22s and 18s......................pretty cool!   Never seen a live 22......................talk about BADASS rides!   I'm jealous!

I was once offered $5,000 for a winning lottery ticket. It was for Navy Relief  and the prize was a fully loaded Cobra. Sweet trigger time. (Officially this never happened, btw.)
