If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
OK, you know about modern jets. I live near Sacramento Airspace, McClellan or whatever and I saw an unusual jet the other day. Triangular wings but no canards and with a conventional tail design.
ReplyDeleteMoving too high and too fast for any other identification.
Care to venture an idea as to what that might have been? I'm curious.

Easiest choices would be A-4 Skyhawk (tail is mid, slightly above the fuselage, but nowhere near a T-tail) or a MIG-21.
ReplyDeleteOK, and thanks. Front of this beast was longer than either of those aircraft. Long enough body to make me expect the short front wings, but not visible.
ReplyDeleteCertainly unusual whatever it was. Going fast and to the east.

Maybe an SU-9 or -15? Did you have any other ideas about it, that is relative size or number of engines?
ReplyDeleteYeah, not too many other matching options, especially that would be flying in the US. Sure you didn't miss the canards? ATAC operates IAI Kfirs that would be flying in that area.
