This aircraft has not had the hush kit mod yet, truly a rocket!

Great shot! Thanks for the memories!!! I miss those old RR Spey engines. They were on the Gulfstream II as well and are seen (heard) every once in a while. (If lucky!!!) :)

Awesome pic- we saw lots of Bac-111's at CLE- Mohawk, Allegheny, US Air and American come to mind- and I agree on the noise these jets made- military planes were seldom as loud except in burner.

Yeah, I always knew when one was departing by my vibrating house windows all the way in Lakewood.
