Four privately owned jet fighters.

Did you notice what type were the privately owned fighters?

I will see Kfirs, A4, and Mirages pretty frequently. I wonder if those are Viggins.

Sometimes I will see one or two private jets that are part of the exercises. Almost always see tankers. Last night a KC135 went over the house, by the time I got outside it was sorta hidden by trees. There might have been more than one KC135 because of the number of lights I was seeing but only one was on flight tracker.

The three were Hunters, the rear was Kfir.
