Was flying in the northwest in some pretty bad thunderstorms with the C-27J and snapped a few shots.

Departing with REX St. Elmo's Fire Lightning in the background
...

Thanks for looking Smiley

Crabbing it back in with moderate turbulence and got illuminated by lightning on final.

Very cool Cool Cool
 

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"
