Jets over New York City

[sr71blackbird]

<p>Around noon today I was outside my building in Downtown Brooklyn and suddenly heard a terrifingly loud jet engine and suddenly it got VERY loud and people started scrambling out to see what was going on.&nbsp; It turned out it was a bunch of fighter jets flying very low and very fast and it was scary as hell!&nbsp; People around me (myself included) thought there was an attack or something.&nbsp; Then people started saying something about fleet week and it started making some sense, but still; low fast and loud jets over Downtown Brooklyn&nbsp;is a bit unsettling.&nbsp; Anyone else witness this?</p><p><img height="279" src="http://media.nasaexplores.com/01-071/blue_angels_small.jpg" width="200" border="0" /></p>

I saw them too. I was in Brooklyn. They were really low and really loud.&nbsp; I didnt realize it was Fleet Week already. Very cool to see.

Thank you Freakshow.

<p>I saw them too, over Bayonne and there was also a big cargo plane with them. They flew over twice, then twice again about a half hour later. It was cool, but kinda freaky at the same time. I felt better when I was also reminded about &quot;Fleet Week&quot;.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img height="41" src="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/tongue.gif" width="49" border="0" /></p><img src="http://hometown.aol.com/who6404/images/sigwhom1.jpg" border="0" />

When you're a Jet you're a Jet all the way.<br />

<p>In Jersey, I saw two planes (not the same type - one looked like a fighter, the other looked like a cargo jet/airliner) flying VERY close to each other in Middlesex County.&nbsp; It kind of looked like an escort or something.</p>

Wow...at around 1 this afternoon I remember hearing an extremely loud plane fly overhead.&nbsp; I was too lazy to go and check out what it was, and usually when its cold out planes sound a lot louder, but I guess the noise&nbsp;was from jets for fleet week.&nbsp; Hmm...yes.

<p>I just threw a paper airplane out my window.&nbsp; Perhaps this explains it?</p>

I shucked it, and I shucked it, and I shucked it, i'm quite the mother shucker

<p>When I was stationed in Pensacola Fla in the late 80's my base was very close to the Naval Air Station where the Blue Angels were based. I used to get to see them practice for their shows almost every day. It really rocked!!!</p><p>Nearby&nbsp;here in Winchester, VA, there are C-130 transport planes flying all the time. Sometimes there are A-10 Warthogs. The Warthogs are totally cool. They can manuever like nothing you've ever seen.</p><p>They're ugly little bastards, but cool nonetheless...</p><p><img height="308" src="http://www.strangemilitary.com/images/content/105201.jpg" width="434" border="0" /></p>

Last time I saw fighter jets over the city was a few years ago when the power went out.&nbsp; Not the huge blackout that happened last year but the time before that when there was a fire in the powerplant someplace around there.&nbsp; You could see the smoke billowing out by the river and before the reports went out no one knew what was going one.&nbsp; Huge clouds of black smoke and then the fighter jets start flying by.&nbsp; We thought some crazy stuff was going on but when we found out it was just a worthless power outage I got pissed because the showing of Metropolis I was supposed to see got canceled.

I load bombs on F/A-18Cs all day long.&nbsp; Those things are going to kill my hearing and destroy my back.

<p>This thread reminded me of after Sept. 11, when they locked down all of the airports.</p><p>For a full day or 2 there was not a sound in the sky. Then all of a sudden, the fighters started SCREAMING overhead. Quite un-nerving. Also made me realize how I am able to tune out everyday air traffic.</p>
