Skippy Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I'm sitting here reading a thread and some sort of Jet just buzzed my house. I am sure it must be heading down to Heinz Field for the Pitt vs. Navy game but man this thing sounded like it was in coming for sure. By the time I walked outside to look up it was gone. I could still hear it but could not see anything. My 10 year old has a "what the eff" was that look on her face. There have been plenty of fly overs at Heinz in the last 20 years that I lived here but I have never seen or heard anything like this.

A C-17(?) passed over at very low altitude, and shook the house to it's foundation! I almost chit! Those big babies the military have are unreal. If I were an Iraqi, I'd be handing over my rifle for a bowl of soup in a NY minute after a fly by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaxfactor Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 It's weird that you posted this thread Skip. Here in Jax, I live fairly close to the river. Right across the river is Jacksonville NAS. Now I too have heard plenty of planes coming in. Usually the big cargos circle right over my house on their approach. Occasionally a jet will fly over. But one morning bright and early when I was still asleep one came really freekin low. It was so low and loud I almost pissed the bed. Ex-SO rolled over and grabbed ahold of me. I believe we were both thinking the same thing. Here it comes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 (edited) Living on the coast with several various military bases in close proximity it happens here just often enough to scare the crap out of you every time it does. Just a couple of weeks ago we had a sonic boom late one evening that brought the whole neighborhood out in their PJ's. It literally sounded and felt like someones gas line in their house blew.

Hat Trick Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Every year around 4 planes circle around my neighborhood for the first Chiefs home game, they fly by 2-3 times and they get in formation and head straight towards the stadium. it's awesome!
