A lowflying jet just screamed by and around over the northern part of Washington, D.C. The event went on for several minutes. We could see the jet, but not if it was chasing anything.
Blowing out carbon.
What kind of jet was it? Military? Civilian?
any description of the jet you can give? The airwing of FR could help ID it.
Just had another pass by overhead.
Thailand??
Was Ted Kennedy flying? No wait, he would have crashed in the river and given a press conference tommorrow.
It's Tom Cruise.
Practicing for Air Force Memorial dedication this weekend.
Nothing here.
I did hear that the Coasties were going to start testing they're air defense over DC - but they are in helicopters.
I think that we have the answer; shower on!
I'm sitting right around Key Bridge, looking out the window, nothing here.
Never seen anything in news so reasons are not clear.
Right on time!
