With this being a month centered around the Big Game, what a better time to highlight a special visitor. In fact, this plane just so happened to stop by at nearly the same time that the two teams arrived in town for their game! This is a U.S. Air Force T-38 Talon out of Sheppard Air Force Base in Texas. These aircraft are part of the Euro-NATO Joint Pilot Training Program and are used to conduct training missions for new Air Force pilots. They were conducting training nearby and stopped at Phoenix Sky Harbor for fuel and put on quite a show.
