OT - Military air traffic

Post by homefront »

There has been a marked increase in military helicopters and A-10's flying (separately) over my house. They all follow the same approximate path, at different times of day and night, low and slow (and loud). I live about 13 miles east of the Limerick nuclear power plant.
Any thoughts?

I appreciate your reply - but I'm afraid I can't meet you for an FTF. At least not right away.

I saw a couple A-10s cruising low over I-89 last summer.

Those are awesome planes.

If you see any FO teams in the shrubbery or laser sighting spots on your roof, you might want to start eating out...

:shock:
Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Gentlemen, lest we forget OPSEC. I've been out of the military for 10 years and I still won't discuss any operation I've been on or have been privy to. I'm not trying to be tearse, however, where OUR country's security is at stake, I WILL NOT pass the buck. It's something I feel we all believe in, in one form or another. Thanks, Tom

What op, I have no idea what you are talking about. Never been there, never did that. I didn't see no border anyway. :wink:
