I was referring to the NOISE of the planes, not the planes themselves! I swear people have really been pissing me off lately!
I'm going to have to change my fav song "grandma got run over by a reindeer to "esas got run over by an airplane."

Lots of booms over by the school on base on Tues and Thurs evening.

Don't know what they were doing but it was loud. Sounded like they were blowing stuff up.
