They must have went further north over Laplace. I didn’t see them.

Just saw them fly over Mandeville. Had a great view from the Fresh Market parking lot. Turned on their smoke for the folks at Lakeview

Turned northeast over the River near Westwego/Nine Mile Point, it appeared. I'm four blocks off the River on the West Bank, got a good look at them heading off to the ENE. They came back over me from the NW heading SE to Belle Chasse.

Kenner (brah) by the airport. The flight path that was posted had them well south of the airport, but they flew right over me.

I'm hearing from others that they are not following the flight paths that have been posted on social media.

Sounds like they might need a little trip to Top Gun to get their skills honed.

If they're not careful, they'll be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog shite outta Hong Kong.

They have to fly the hours regardless. Changing the flight path costs very little if anything.


They practice every Tuesday and Wednesday at Pensacola NAS 51 weeks out of the year, and normally fly an air show ever Friday and Saturday, which they are obviously not doing. Considering the logistics and additional personal and additional aircraft required for the air shows these flybys are likely saving a lot of money.

Which IMO is a smart idea...why would they give the enemy their flight plan?

I don't think either flyover followed the posted flight plan.

Last week's was supposed to cross over my crib twice and all I got was a very very faint whistle of the B52s. Those things are loud as frick so it had to be a good distance away.
