Good catch, and great quality! I believe I saw the same plane in July. It was cleared to taxi by Groom tower on a mil. air band freq., then taxied from north to south in front of the Red Hat Hangars until it was behind the ridge in the foreground. Then it taxied back to the hangar without ever taking off. This very blurry photo shows it taxiing back into the hangar. Its hard to tell, but I believe you can see an outward angled tail on the right of the open hangar door. I'll see if I can tweak the image some more. This was around 7 or 8am.

Its hard to tell what it is, but the vertical double tail looks more angled and bigger than the MiG-29.

BTW: Wasn't able to view the movie. I get some cryptic error message with both MSIE and Netscape, and as usual with Microsoft the message is just as helpful as their web site. Not at all!
