Jet Low Pass , Death Valley

I spotted the F/A-18 Super Hornet flying high. I kept on eye on the plane. I said to myself- "No, he is not going to do it; no, he is not going to do it." The plane dived down and leveled with the ground and it accelerated . He is going to buzz us as I ran to my Jeep to grab my telephoto lens. The jet was going to fast for me to ready my camera ready to shoot since the camera was set up for landscape photography. there was a good size group from New Zealand who were totally shocked by the low pass by the SOB. The pilot buzzed us. After the first pass, jet swung around and made another pass but a bit higher. This time I was ready and got my shot.
