I saw a post on here but can't find it about something weird flying around recently...
Here near Hwy 51 and big Calvary Church, something "different" has flown over 4 times in the last hour...
We can hear it, but can't see it....
More like a jet, not propellers, but much louder than normal plane...

Anybody else tuned in to this?

Yes! It went right over our house in near 51/Johnston. It was SO outrageously loud - couldn't see what it was, though.

It's clearly the Second Coming of Jesus.

The rich and famous are now entering our city. That area is where many will stay. The noise is from a special secret drone plane to check for terrorist and stuff.

There was a thread about drones being here for the DNC. Airborne drones, not DNC attendees.

Well, it is the night of the Blue Moon, so who knows what will happen?!
I'll be out there checking it out - how fun would it be to have the Mother Ship land?!
We could show them true southern hospitality!

Did find this - they may have started early...we used to have the fighter jets fly over our place at the coast...sounded more like that than drones....

Oh, I love this stuff!

Amalgam Virgo? What a name. The sun is in Virgo right now (maybe that is why they chose the name???)

No, I hadn't noticed this article- TY for posting it!

I have a thing about military aircraft. When I lived in Kansas, I would go to Whiteman just to see the aircraft (I know, I know - we long ago established - I am VERY easily entertained, lol).

I was awestruck the first time I saw a stealth fly so low over my house (after 9/11) that I felt if I had been standing on the roof, I could have touched it.

I am avoiding the DNC . . .but I would LOVE to see these aircraft.
