I get the occasional fighter jet out of Maxwell AFB flying pretty low over my house. Cool as shite!

Had a military plane fly directly over the house off Jones Creek around 7. I was pushing the kids on the swing and I thought it was landing in Shenandoah.

Exactly. C-17, BLUES31, from MS ANG out of Jackson. Landed at Camp Shelby for a bit and has returned to JAN.

Same thing occurred Jan 12, 2022, when it flew over me in the deer stand SW of Kentwood. Looks like this is a similar route that it took back then.

It was a C-17 back then I believe.
