Very nice! Tomcats are always a treat to see. When I was a kid, I lived very close to Miramar and had a tour of the base, including the flight line. Even got a hands on tour of a Tomcat! So shots like these bring back memories of those days!

@ gtirob01, when did you live out there? I was stationed at Miramar back in the 1980s. Served with VF-2 and VF-24. Worked on the Tomcat engines. My civilian job well I don't have one right now I worked with and operated G.E. stationary gas turbines. The last turbine I ran was a G.E. Frame 5 which is the same engine as on the DC-10s except this one burned natural gas instead of JP4 or JP5.

I was born there, and lived near Miramar until about 2006, when I moved out to Florida
