Really strange aircraft activity over westport tonite
Got home bout 6:30 tonite and as got out of car (yes CAR as truck has died). was perplexed and even a little concerned about the very unusual type and amount of air activity around. this was weirder than the nite years ago that we have discussed about the stealth fighters over SOCO or the repeated training exercise I watched 2 years ago over beavertail
I don't know what they were but I thought we were under attack
A pair of big, big aircraft pretty low in a a trailing formation moving north west to south east. Wing lights seemed over a football field apart the strange part was almost no noise. about 20 minutes later another pair on an slightly different heading. I mean my ceiling fans make more noise and these were big f'n aircraft If a military cargo plane like others that have flown over in the past either prop or jet propulsion at this level would have made house shake. we are on the approach to New Bedford airport and even the small planes make a hell of a racket
there were also a few helicopters and other small propeller airplanes wandering about on abnormal flight paths as well. we reguarly have sets of Blackhawks running in formations back forth over house but they run the same flight patterns but this was different. no spotlights so not searching.
was eerie. Called a couple of buddies to ask if they knew if lock and load time or what..
Anyone in the know ?
