I was able to get one more click of this huge USAF jet, and that one last pic was of all the smoke as those tires made contact with the runway ... and then I was walloped with flying sand, tiny stones and pebbles, and tumbleweed that was being blasted back by the engines as the pilots pushed the throttles to the firewall to initiate the "Go" portion of this "Touch and Go" on 31L.
