They are circling close to PF/Barstow/Benedict area.

They're low enough to vibrate the building I work in.

I grew up under Andrews' flight path, so I'm like a little kid when I see cool planes :popcorn: .

That's always neat to watch. I miss being on the carrier and seeing them shot off and doing flybys lol

Yeah, noticed when I googled the pics that the tail was not right for fighter.

Still- cool thing to see out your office window on a Thursday morning. I could see them as soon as I turned on to 231 from 4.

I am such a little kid when it comes to planes. :jameo:

We used to watch the fighters practicing for the Andrews' air show from the windows of our school bus when I was growing up.

Few times an F-16 came a little too close for comfort to the roof of our house during the show. :jameo:

Or whatever you'd call it on an F-22. The planes I saw looked like big black kites to me.

I'd call it a tail, but vertical stabilizer is more correct. On a B-2 I'd call it missing. :lmao:

Way back when we lived in Morningside, we always watched the planes practicing. Talk about low over the house... One year a Blue Angel flew directly over our front yard. The pilot was waving and the red "smoke" he was trailing wafted down into the yard. Now that was scary but really cool!

Morningside- yeah that would have put Andrews in your back yard. We were over in North Forestville.

Shame on you. Do you know how many defensless cows had to be barbarically slaughtered and eaten to feed all those workers for all those days that built those things :bawl: I don't even want to think about the lifetime supply to feed the maintainers and pilots. :bawl:

:killingme I love all types of A/C and the show they put on. I never flew in a jet but I flew in H-60s all the time and now I'm flying in C-130's as an aircrewman. Nothing fancy about the Herc but we go to some cool places at times
