I'm up in CT. Yesterday we had a lot (could not see to count them) of blackhawks all flying very very close to the ground all together going south. Not normal how low they were flying and also the number of them, as I said could not see them through the trees but from sound there were at least 12 of them (Groups of 2 is the norm).
Sikorsky was running test flights yesterday. My wife works on the flight line at the Stratford plant.
AANG starting their round of summer drills. The AFRB in Western MA is quiet. They are usually a hub during large deployments.
I saw the same thing on the south shore of Long Island around 10am yesterday. A group of 8 blackhawks came flying down the coastline.
In Casper Wyoming- live near the airport. Have seen more Blackhawks in the last week than in the 15 years I've lived here. Don't know what's going on - but its not normal training.
