Getting buzzed by a Lockheed U-2

An U-2 Landing At Beale AFB, CAIMG_2923.jpg

IMG_2933.jpgIMG_2948.jpgI was working near Beale AFB when a U-2 came in for a landing; I'm guessing it was less than 200 feet in the last picture. I knew it had a wide wing span, but I was still surprised by the width of wing span in person. It's amazing that a jet from the 50's is still in service; I guess it's a mix of old and cutting edge technology because of the new sensors, cameras, antennas, radar, etc.
