@TheSnoopySnoop Here is what it looks like when I mess up kind of as the post states

"Spotting in the wild... It may not be pretty but the show must go on. In this episode of Fred's desert adventures, I put down the camera to film high altitude stuff with my phone and almost on Que here come F-16C Aggressors. Mostly sound after my frantic dash #AvGeek #R2508 #Sidewinder"

SOUND UP!!!!!!
