Looked like a b25, but I'm not 100% I'm in kenner, but it's flight path takes it through the MSY runway area not to the airport, direct heading would be Metairie and new Orleans.
Really cool.
If you are north of i10 look up. Lol
Of course by the time I had camera ready I only got a picture if of tree.
Must have an airshow.
That loud low rumble is unlike any other plane I've heard. Really cool.

I wouldn't mind a chance at flight in a B-17, B-25, or B-29. Pretty awesome aircraft to hear them engines.

It was following I-12 east over Baton Rouge. I believe it was Fifi, one of 2 B-29s still flying. It's the 2nd time in 3 years I have seen it over Baton Rouge.
It is a cool piece of flying history.

Probably wasn't a B52. They have a higher pitch sound. It's a very unique sound that I'll never forget from living next to Barksdale AFB for so long.

I flew in the b17 aluminum overcast at Oshkosh in July
Unforgettable experience
Also have video of the 16 or so b25's they had there flying in tribute to Doolittle raiders anniversary. Along with video of the only two air worthy b29's up in the air at the same time.

The Blue Angels are at Alliance in Ft Worth this weekend, were flying around practicing today.

You think that's cool you outta hear those 8 Aeroshell planes with those massive radials fly over at once. Heard them at Barksdale one year.
Not as jizz inducing as blue angels flying over with after burners on. Cool none the less.

I was stuck in rush hour traffic close to the airport a few days ago, and an Osprey passed low right in front as it was coming in for a landing. A few minutes later, a B25 came over low headed in the opposite direction. Made a usually shitty drive home a lot better.
