Enjoying our annual visit with family on Whidbey Island. They don’t have any ties with the Navy, but we can occasionally see/hear them buzzing around. It is a very prett area and the walks are nice.

Whidbey is fantastic, I love Fort Ebey and Fort Casey, little south of Oak Harbor around Coupeville.

You’re a ferry ride away from me in PT. The 18s often fly over my place.

Condolences to your being deaf afterwards then! Hornets are frigging loud. Not quite as bad as the F14s of the past but still loud as shit.

Dang - we were up there today as well, (not on base, but drove right past.) Didn’t see/hear anything flying. My folks get noise with the Growlers doing touch and gos off the OLF but otherwise it’s not bad. Still haven’t seen any of the new Poseidons up there yet.

We are very close to Ebey.

Sounds like they aren’t far from my in laws. Just north of Coupleville. Funny enough I have seen the Posideons in the hangar at work. Would love to see them down low over the Sound. 737s with torpedo bays are cool.
