Talk about traffic stoppers!

Two Harriers (or some kind of VTOL fighters) landed at KSDL this afternoon. For some reason there have been a lot of fighters landing there on recent Saturdays.

For you guys that live near Nellis or Edwards seeing these "air crawlers" up close might be kind of routine. But at our little municipal airport it's really incredible to watch. They literally came to a mid-air stop just over the numbers on RWY 21 which is probably 100 yards from Frank Loyd Wright Blvd. Cars were literally stopping in the street to watch.

Very cool to watch up close.
