It's always nice when jet jockeys in the military disregard the risks to
which they expose civilians with their "show-off" antics. It's no wonder
you would have loved to have been there.

I'm sure the plane in the photo was not as close to the building as a
telephoto lens makes it appear, but...had anything untoward happened,
the plane could have plowed into the structure and killed a lot of people.

Sometimes down at Virginia Beach you see navy pilots doing that sort of
stuff, but they are doing it for flight practice, and over the water,
not in the airspace in between the hotels.

Perhaps you should head over to Afghanistan so you can get your
vicarious kicks from the military's bombing of "suspected" terrorist
residences that turn out to have held no targets but innocent civilians.
I'm sure the sight of burned, broken, and roasted bodies would turn you
on, eh?
