Are you sure that wasn't Robert's gas?

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Not sure what's up though. Not a lot of fighters this week, but helicopter traffic is way up.

Usually that means they are flying in support of a training excercise or they're getting ready to deploy and all the pilots are getting current.
Yeah, must be something like that. The Chinooks are doing pattern work, they just come over again and turned downwind to base right over the house @ a few hundred feet!!!! They were in TIGHT formation too.....BAD-ASS!!!!
