Lots of GA around my place!

And I get exited when I pull out my binculors and see a NW heavy fly at about 30,000 some odd feet above me. Quite sad! :'(

I've seen a couple military planes go over our farm.  I saw an A-10 once, it was about at tree top level, but you couldn't hear it at all.  Also, when we were out in the pasture one day we saw three or four F16s at high altitude refueling from a tanker.  Wer live next to a major e-w interstate that they sue for navigation(I think).

Also last summer we saw the Aquafina blimp. ;D

Apart from the odd medical chopper and light aircraft once a month i no longer see aircraft over my house. After 20 years of having them within a few 1000 feet every couple of minutes or choppers on army bases really low all day and night. I am going insane. :o
