This would be my first El Centro trip and first experience seeing the Goshawk airborne.  Here is a T-45 just touching down after another training flight.  The bright orange areas on the aircraft aid visibility should the aircraft go down in terrain.  Based on the British Aerospace Hawk, the T-45 has been used by the United States Navy as an aircraft carrier-capable trainer since 1991.  221 aircraft were delivered with production ending in 2009.  Nikon D500 w/18-200mm.
