I didn't even hear it until it was almost in front of me. Maybe 200 feet out over the water

I didn't have time! Wish I would have seen it coming. Never seen any that low around here. It was pretty damn quiet.

And that's just because the pilot was screaming.

Engine had probably already shutdown due to faulty sensor data, and they were already down to 200' trying to restart.

I bet the pieces falling out of it are worth a pretty penny.

I see the F-35s fly around base sometimes. They are noticeably quiet compared to the F-18s and T-38s.

We got buzzed by some fighter jets in Cocodrie last year. They will definitely get your attention.

That would be the case with any fighter plane flying at 350 knots at 200ft.
