Not gonna lie, seeing the F22s and F35s while at the beach a couple weeks ago was cool as shite for someone who doesn't live near an AFB or NAS.



ETA: It was Memorial Day weekend so they had some old stuff out flying and our first full day there were two P51s that flew over. The sound was so awesome. That deep rumble instead of the jet engine sound just hit different.

I went to HS in South Bossier. A-10’s used to flyover the school all the time. They are bad arse planes.

I will never turn down a free place to stay at anywhere that let's me relax with the family. FIL paid for the place and wanted us to tag along. I bought his beer and meals for the week. The beach is better than work.

He and I are taking his boat out of Venice next month while staying in his camper and I'll tag along for that with no complaints too.

I'm in the area of the OP. Across the river in God's country AKA Shreveport. It gets old because it's non-stop touch and go landing training I guess.

Someone mention the Warthog, I was working near Clovis, NM out in the middle of nowhere and 2 of them topped a mesa by us just a few hundred feet off the ground. That was cool.

Thanks for letting the Chinese know.


Global Strike Command is on Barksdale AFB. The Chinese knew about this place before today.

Probably fly over your house more than you know.


as someone near Whiteman AFB, you will absolutely know every time a B2 flies over. They are not quiet and the sound their massive engines make is very unique. You can hear them from a LONG ways away.
