Did they change a flight pattern this morning? It sounds like jets are roaring about 4 inches over my apartment. This is quite unsettling.
responding to upset callers, i just heard on npr that the low fly overs are part of fleet week. you were not alone in your concerns.
That's a fucking brilliant idea. Let's fly jets real low over Manhattan and watch everyone brace for impact.
Thanks Bill. I can unclench now.
"fright week"
i was convinced we were under attack. i saw them on my way to work - flying in formation REALLY LOW up and down the east side.
And you actually went to work? Nice commitment!
yeah. i figured i might as well be with some comrades if we were going down.
around 9 am? why not?!!!?
The Blue Angels used to visit Moffet Field once a year and do 200 ft. flyovers of the low-rise Silicon Valley industrial parks during practice for the show. When they fly close to the speed of sound, you don't get much warning before the blast of sound. If one snuck up and flew right over head it was very startling.
A blue angel flew over me one quiet morning in SF. I thought someone had set off bomb.
