RAMBO 01 and 02, F-35s of the MA ANG’s 104th Fighter Wing, taxi to runway 02 at KBAF, 10/13/26. The 104th is currently flying loaner jets from FL, WI and TX while they await their own jets. More pics in comments 👇 #104fw #kbaf #barnestormers #f35 #airplanes #aviation #avgeek

Caught this very same airframe a year ago at KBDL! And yes, can confirm on the decibel level 🙉

Ahhh ok I see it now. As others have stated, this was not a good plan by the pilot. They clearly expected to clear the bridge you were on, but almost stalled the plane trying, and were left with no choice but to go under.

I just want to make sure I’m looking at this correctly (pic from another comment in this thread): you’re on the third bridge from the bottom in this photo, correct? Wouldn’t their flight path be directly toward those large without banking to the right?

Blue Skies Aviation @blueskiesaviation.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
I believe they were just banking right to follow the curve of the river. Continuing straight ahead would’ve flown them into buildings on the west side of the river.

Very cool planes. I’ve only seen one in person.

The idea that this is ostensibly being done to keep oil prices down after invading Iran is peak stupidity.

An unusual sight for a small regional airport: not one but two Allegiant A320s parked at KBAF this evening. N246NV brought in the Miami (Ohio) University football team, but was unable to leave, necessitating a second aircraft to come pick them up. #allegiant #a320 #KBAF #airplanes #aviation #avgeek

I support Canada 100% but I would discourage the use of AI to promote your cause. AI is directly linked to American fascism.

How slick would it have been if they could actually show the flight track passing under the bridges? 😂

They’re giving away payloaders in the terminal? That’s pretty neat! 🤭 How is the 550 to fly in? Should be a little more spacious since it’s basically a 700 limited to 50 seats.

Having to tell the rest of the world to give up on us and move forward without us. Feels bad, man.

I think you’re correct, for me it’s that distinctive body shape. I tend to think of all of them as Jetrangers.

Love the classic look of Jetrangers. Reminds me of 80s tv and action movies.

Omni 777-200 landing on runway 05 at Westover ARB, 9/23/26. I’ll soon have some UNGA arrivals from JFK to share when I have some free time to go through them. #westover #kcef #b772 #airplanes #aviation #avgeek

This is revolting. They killed a 21 year old kid through willful negligence, for sports.
