Right place and (almost) the right time? Maybe not, had to pull up quick and shoot through the dirty windscreen to get this as it departed...so not a great photo. Also it looked like a Gulfstream followed it out, may have been the NASA jet (little pods under the wings, white/grey and blue livery right?).

I find it somewhat ironic that one of the nick names for the 747 is Whale.
