Airplanes Flying Overhead

It’s much cooler here today. I went out early for a walk and didn’t break a sweat. Dobbins airplanes have been flying over all morning so low they seem to almost touch the tree tops. They are either testing airplanes or pilots are getting in their practice. It’s a little scary having them fly so low overhead.
What is everyone in mylot land doing today? Whatever it is I hope you have a joyful day. I’ll see you later if nothing breaks bigger than a frog hair.

Shortly after Hurricane Idalia hit our area, I kept hearing military jets and helicopters flying low overhead by my house (I’m on the flight path for planes landing and taking off from our airport). I found out later it was because President Biden flew in to our airport on Air Force One.

@RubyHawk Yes, the Air Force sends fighter jets to escort the Presidents plane wherever he goes.

@moffittjc Of course they do, but I hadn’t thought about it.

@RebeccasFarm They’d likely be happy to go to bed themselves.

@RubyHawk Glad to hear that you are enjoying cooler temperature
It will be a thrilling moment when airplanes fly over the tree tops ...
As usual the day was good & everything going smooth
It is 18:39 now
Ofcourse, nothing breaks bigger than a frog hair

Sometimes we get jets that do fly overs over the nuclear plant that are very loud and low to the ground. It can be startling.

@RubyHawk No close air bases here. These flyers are out of Norfolk.

It has finally gotten cooler here too. Oh wow, those planes sounds like they're in flight so low. I know that feeling . . . we are near a hospital, so the helicopters fly down too low for my comfort. This past month has been nuts . . . but hopefully it stays more normal from here on out!!

There was a (at first private, then later public) airport behind my childhood home. I remember being 6-7-8 years old, and some friends and I were walking along the creek that ran right along the end of the runway. An airplane came in for a landing and went right above our heads. We all ducked, even though the landing gear was still maybe ten feet above our heads.

@xstitcher My sisters family didn’t live near the airport very long. I know the planes would wake up the babies in the night. She had four little ones.

I had to hound the security through phone calls to reach my house in my city from my sons work place. Really it's a tough job handling people these days.

That is scary when the planes fly low like that. We had helicopters that do that every six months or so. They are monitoring the trees close by the high power lines. They mark trees that need to be cut back or down. Last year they removed 3 trees from our property.

I spent the day indoors watching and hearing rain all day. It rained here every day this week. They said NYC had flood issues and was declared a state of emergency.
I'd like to post you a picture, but until My Lot decides to fix the uploading issues, as they say... it is what it is...
