it's a military exercise which the Triangle "borders", and we'll see more low flying aircraft around. it happens every year, so we're used to it, but the new folks should know. (low flying at night, too)
I've never heard of this and appreciate the warning, but does this apply to either Wake or Durham County? Specifically, Brier Creek? If so, I want to 'warn' my mostly transplant neighbors.
The exercise will not involve Wake, Durham, or Orange counties. You may notice an uptick in military aircraft flying over, but then again, maybe not...
FORT BRAGG, N.C. (WNCN) - Fayetteville and Fort Bragg area residents can expect to "hear and feel" explosions this weekend,..."Residents of Fort Bragg and the surrounding communities should expect to hear and feel the effects of the training," a news release said.

I wonder how many people bought houses next to Bragg and will complain about the noises.
Ah, nobody. You don't need to live "next door" to Fort Bragg to hear the big guns/explosions. I grew up in Fayetteville and we would hear big booms and our windows would rattle and shake all the time. We did not live particularly close to base. We were on the other side of the mall area closer toward downtown. I never thought a thing of it. Didn't have anything to do with Robin Sage, either. That's the just the normal for Fayetteville. You're gonna hear big booms pretty much all over town and see lots and lots of airplanes and choppers.
I think it's nice to have a heads up about Robin Sage, though. I seem to remember there was an incident 10-15-20 yrs ago or so. I can't recall the details now, but it involved one of the civilians who was participating in role playing for Robin Sage. I think they did their role too well and fooled local law enforcement or something along those lines? Anybody recall?
A fighter jet flew over my house....low....this past week - I was glad I remembered this thread. My son was outside and he's a lil into the military so he came in announced it, although I heard it coming a mile away!

Sheriff killed one soldier and wounded another. He pulled them over for some reason and they thought he was in on the exercise so they tried to “bribe” him. Things turned sour and he shot them.
