L.A.st Night

Between the fireworks & the low-flying police 'choppers it was like a scene from Apocalypse Now.Spotted at L.A. Taco.

And, the flyover that gave me pause last evening. Four F-15s, I'd guess. Sounded about like this chez moi, but louder.
Yep, four F-15Cs, from the Calif. A.N.G. in Fresno. I was correct to be nervous:
Our friends over at the always great Air Force amn/nco/snco Facebook page posted some shots of 144th Fighter Wing F-15Cs executing a flyover of Dodger Stadium on July 4th. If you look closely, the lead jet's boarding ladder is deployed, which is not a normal or good situation. If the apparatus were to break off it could smash into the jet, or worse, be sucked down its left side air intake.
