Just shook the deer stand in St. Charles, the community. Looked like they were heading for Houma air base.

I just made it outside with the camera and I think they’re done-zo. At least I saw them twice. That was cool as shite.

...and headed to the mountains,


The closest mountain would be Mt Geismar, the 100 ft mountain of garbage.

It’s most likely a reserve drill weekend and the pilots are getting ahead in hours for the month.

Imagine if there was a thread every time a military aircraft flew over the city of New Orleans

There would probably be a dozen everyday.


Well yeah, the squadrons that operate out of Belle Chase would typically be around the NOLA area or over the gulf. I lived in BR for almost 20 years and only saw jets from the 159th like twice.

F-15Cs at low level are awesome to see. Those things will rattle your chest close up
