Smokin' Falcon

This is ultimately the best pic I have taken so far.. period. 2014 was good for my photography and it took me about 20 years to capture a moment like this :-D
Taken at a South African Airshow in May 2014. The subject is our pride and glory from our Air force, The Silver Falcons.

I find this a tad too bright when viewed at full size rather than the smaller preview, but that is a minor quibble. I agree you nailed the composition, including the sunlight reflected from the nose of the airplane.
