Friend works in Madison just reported an abnormally low flying plane. Frontier. Anyone in the area?
Keep me posted.
I’m getting into the shower.
this is hugh
Friends works in a large building, saying everyone is freaked out at how close it came to the building. Looking for confirmation. Might be nothing.
Maybe looking for damage by the hurricane??
There have been reports of abnormally high flying planes in the same area, flying so high as to be actually out of sight.
Unable to confirm at this time.
No hurricanes in Wisconsin.
Friend reports it was a Frontier Airline plane. Very low.
Just north of Lake Okeechobee the Kissimmee River has been dredged and a berm is on either side about 50 feet high.
I love to fly below the tops of the berms right off the water and watch for Gators. Just a few bridges and power lines to avoid from Sebring to the big lake.
Lots of times a commercial will go low to avoid the top of a hammerhead thunderstorm or Ridge pushing along a front.
things so bad for the airlines under this administration that they are moonlighting as crop dusters?
....another Dumbo photo op
Unfaithful husbands??
Where’s AF1?
I’m gonna add to it! I just have to. I went to lunch about an hour ago, and there were two planes in a very low pattern (Southwest 737 and another company) in a very different location from normal. Albuquerque metro area. I’ve worked in this area for six and a half years and have never seen this flight path or altitude here. We’re about 10 miles north of the airport, just off I-25, but we’re not on the normal approach (normal approach directions and altitudes are way different from what I saw today). I was wondering if it was an emergency go-around. They were way low considering our distance from the airport - much lower than 1,000 feet, closer to 500 or so.
just a crop duster...
Okay, you got me there...there are unfaithful husbands in Wisconsin.
Maybe an emergency landing in this case as well. Looking for something on the news wires, but nothing as of yet. But I trust this source.
Airforce One looking for a golf course?
