A good guess that as this was taken by a federal employee on federal time,
it is the equivalent of Crown copyright up here, and is probably public
domain. Somewhat like that great pic of the F16/18 (?) breaking the sound
barrier taken by a Navy photographer last year.

(and if you take photographs for the Feds, it's an easy way to get screwed
if you not careful!)
