I’m sorry, I have to ask: is that picture real or is it photoshopped billboard or otherwise?
I think it's photoshopped. There is nothing at all right behind the six aircraft. I understand the F414 engines don't produce a lot of smoke, but there is NOTHING, not even a heat signature.
The link is real. The guy pushing this looks like he hasn't taken a bath in months.
And the guy with the bullhorn...that's rich.

Her lawyer is her husband…
I think both are just trying to get attention

Mark in MichiganJust about every other summer the Blue Angels are the star attraction at the Thunder Over Michigan air show. The show is held at Willow Run Airport in Ypsilanti. My house is like, 12 air miles from Willow Run. When the Blues are up and performing their demonstrations, I can hear the exhaust of the jet engines of the F/A-18 Hornets and it makes me wish I were closer to the airport so I could actually see the Blue Angels in the air…
So to see that picture of that billboard makes physically ill… geez, what the hell is wrong with people today?
Best regards,
Mark in Michigan

64dodgeIf Lauren Ann Lombardi was aware of the trauma her cat suffered when the planes flew over, shouldn't she be charged with animal cruelty for not taking the cat and getting the heck out of Dodge until the flyovers were done? Seems to me, she killed the cat.

hberttmankI love to see and feel the US military jets fly. It is the sound of freedom. For those individuals that get butt hurt about that, fuck you.

The engines are F414 (as stated in 229DAK's post) in the Super Hornets.
It's not a photoshop, I have software from back in my IT days, for image analysis and it passes muster.
There are all manner of "noise" and things that present in most manipulations, and this shows none of them anywhere in the image.
The billboard is the actual billboard and I have seen other images of it from differing perspectives, as well as flyers and "protest: signs.

She absolutely killed it. If you find the whole story, you’ll learn the cat was 15 years old, had a long term heart problem, and she made the decision to euthanize it something like 2 weeks after the Blues were in town.
Just trying to cash in and figured now is the time to do it with them being back in town for SeaFair this week.
