Out of nowhere two Starfighters went under the helicopter from the right.

“jesus christ !!” shouted the pilot.

A voice from back seat “He heard you”
A good story with the right touch of humor!

I was once doing photo work in a Super Cub on the eastern edge of R2901 at Avon Park FL at about 200 feet. Totally consumed with the photo taking, the photographer and I both saw an F-4 with 2 occupants fly underneath us. Totally cool.
