F-15's and F-16's spotted by guest bird watcher brian.
F117 spotted by both of us about 430pm.

A P-3 orion was descendng and then going around the pattern, numerous times at palmdale, Someone needs to tell the Navy that submarines can only be hidden in water and not on land. He He :) bit of a funny! Lots of sonic booms well actually 2 of em. Nice sharp and loud cracks too, not the puff's like the F-5 QSB bird.

Yes I will be the first too say it as an avid bird watcher the F-5 QSB works. Lot of aircraft shooting approaches at palmdale today C-130 brian says a navy bird over flew. think dc-9 a navy markings

Interesting to note f117 had the call sign dagger and
yet we both looked for any aircraft on ED departing with no luck detecting on the field. Least I didnt see it until it over flew our position.

china on the radio was hot again today f18's out and about no visual. bottom line another enjoyable bird watching day many thanx to Edwards and et all for making it all possible.

best regards too all
