Was at the Lighthouse (or almost) when we saw 4 FOUR flying overhead. AWESOME!

Why so low? What they doing? They did not notify me :ho:

Is there something y'all in that area aren"t telling us?

They were coming back from the Leesburg airport providing escort service for the Morse jets. Family must be back from their lion hunting safari in Africa.

They were tracking a speeding golf cart for the Sumter Sheriff.

The A-10 is about as quiet as a fighter can be. If they got this much reaction because of the noise there would probably be numerous heart attacks if any fast moving fighters ever passed over in a similar manner. Jet noise is the sound of freedom and I also miss the days of flying fighters.

I would have given almost anything to witness them.
