W Scotland - F-15 Eagle

Another eagle, but not a bird.
 
Taken as they flew down Loch Duich whilst we were waiting in the traffic queue (see previous post). 
 
There were four F-15s, one at a time about a minute apart, flying relatively low and close.  The noise can only be described as loud.  I managed to get in focus shots on the third and fourth jets just before they disappeared behind the trees.  I just couldn't get the lens to focus in the few seconds they came towards me, so ended up having rear end shots.
 
Interesting vapour trails.

Monochrome contrast adjust shows engine exhaust.

 
Flying low close to the hills.
 
The last eagle.
