The jet aircraft I heard today were not fighter aircraft but either commercial air or transport. Maybe bringing supplies south to you folks. Logan is still closed and will not be reopened until thay can fully comply with the increased security requirements of the FAA. As an example, they are towing almost 3000 cars from airport parking lots to a nearby track BEFORE the owners can collect them and BEFORE they allow anything approaching normal flight operations to resume.
Patrick - I agree with you on that. We should not blanket all arabs OR muslims as evil. Find the bastards that did this and reply 100 fold but let's not stoop to their level and attack innocent civilians.
Cruisers Jaiem, more likely Burke class Destroyers as the Battleships have all been decommisioned. We have more of them than cruisers and they are terribly effective in the anti-air business. Their radar can tell between the left and right *** of a gnat at 300 miles (OK - maybe a little less than that).There's probably a picket fence of warships up and down the coasts in front of key population centers.
