U-2


Lately I've been posting about different interesting airplanes, so here's another one. There were two playing around the sky the day I shot this image.
They are painted dark to make them difficult to see at night. They are fast and maneuver well. Funny thing is, they can't land without ground assistance. There is no landing gear on the wing, so they will tip over unless the ground crew snaps portable wing tips with wheels on them. Every time they land!
