A side profile of a white NASA ER-2 aircraft, tail number 806, on a runway surrounded by a dry, grassy landscape. The plane is being closely trailed by a white NASA chase car and a pickup truck, with heavy heat distortion blurring the scene.

Awful heat distortion out here today but finally got the chance to catch the NASA ER-2 that will be hanging out here in Colorado Springs until May supporting the GEMx mission. Started its takeoff run on 17R at taxiway A2 and was up in the air pretty quick.
