It's not every day you get to follow out a flight of 4 F-35A's, you could 'feel' them taking off, the noise was phenomenal

And the poor PC-12 doesn't even rate a mention?

I can understand what you mean about the power tho. When I worked out at the Base, our office was located only a short distance from the threshold of the main runway. An F-111 was visiting one night when I was working back, and sat at the threshold warming up for what seemed an eternity. When he powered up, the noise was incredible, as was the shock diamonds in the exhaust when, I assume, he went full afterburner for the takeoff.
