About 1300 or so, from the VFM back lot, I saw a B-52 on approach to Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth (the former Carswell AFB).

Cheers,

Pawnee...yup, that seems to be a better fit. Just not something I see regularly. The usual banner puller I see here is a Super Cub

I was playing with the zoom on the new camera while at the model airplane field and was tracking down every contrail to see if anything unusual might be going over. I noticed something going over a lot lower,around 5-7000 feet, and got it in the camera. What do you know. An osprey.
