I spent the earlier part of the afternoon hanging outside of McGuire AFB in a parking lot for a bowling alley, furniture store, and dollar store, since Runway 36 was the active runway. Still practicing and getting used to the new camera, so here's what I saw. Nothing out of the ordinary, but for an hour's time, the only planes flying were a KC-135 and KC-10 doing touch and goes and a departing C-17. The lighting kinda sucks but I think next time I will go find a better spot to shoot from, and hopefully on a clear day!
I was at the spot for about an hour until someone in a pickup truck pulled up to my spot, parked like 50 feet away from me, and was on his cell phone and looking at what I was doing. He probably decided to call the police and report me and got my license plate. Technically I was not on Air Force property so the military really can't do anything about that, or can they?
