That last one is a kick ass angle!!!  That raptor is really growing on me.  At first I though it looked kewl, but sterile.  But the vapor that thing squeezes from the air is always most impressive.  Dance

When Zeke practiced at Tyndall a couple of weeks ago, on day one there was plenty of moisture in the air (and low clouds which were a problem). On that day, visible vapor was even generated by the jet the entire length of the runway while doing the SLOW SPEED PASS. Front moved through overnight and the next day hardly a wisp even during the most aggressive pulls.

My favorite back to back shots from day one:
