While Boeing 737s are a very common sight in the skies over Moses Lake, I still enjoy seeing the P-8A's coming in on test flights prior to delivery to the US Navy.
My first time being up close and personal with a Poseidon. This example is up from NAS Jacksonville, but P-8's will soon begin replacing the P-3 Orion's on base, with a total of 42 airframes eventually stationed at Whidbey.
With a small puff of smoke from the tires, a P-8A, still fresh off the production line in near-by Renton, touches down at Boeing Field after a test flight.
