I can't speak for my fellow planefags but Ibelieve most of us planefags do our stuff remotely using ADSB or similar tracking programmes.
There are links to these trackers elsewhere in this bread.
I wish there were more people like you giving us heads up about local changes in the traffic, particularly the military movements as much of this activity does not show up on the trackers.
From my experience the changes in activity can be just as important as the actual individual flights.
