Low Flying F-15Es

 It was looking like it was going to be a quiet day. It was almost lunch time and I was yet to see an aircraft.
Then the peace and quiet of the countryside was quickly blown away by Jazz 31 and Jazz 32. A pair of USAF F-15E Strike Eagles that dropped into low level after practicing air combat manoeuvring (ACM). Quite a sight at low level! Especially with the trailing vortices off the wing tips. This effect is caused by the pressure change on the wing pulling the moisture out of the air.
