They just flew over my house! I heard them, went to the window, I was looking west and east, and they appeared over my head, right over my house, heading south west towards town. They're flying really low. There are 7 of them with one trailing a bit behind. I hear them again, but I'm not sure if they're heading this way.

I'm pretty sure they flew over Bethel Park a few minutes ago. I didn't see them but I heard them.

Try living on a base with them..or any naval jet. I do miss it at times. We were stationed on a Naval Air Station in Maryland when 9/11 happened and everything was grounded. The silence was eerie.

They just went by again. This time right behind my house. I ran out the door this time. Totally cool!

If you hear them, run outside. They are flying low enough you hear them before they arrive instead after they're gone.

I once nearly fell off my bike riding around lake Union in Seattle when a blue angel appeared from nowhere about 200ft above my head - they usually fly during Seafair in August.

Can't hear them in Oakland today ... not so far anyway

Back in the mid-80s, I spent three months in a dumpy motel that was literally at the end of a McGuire runway in NJ. They just barely cleared the motel roof when taking off. The building and windows shook every time. I wasn't there long enough to get use to it.
