Something's Up
So as I am sitting here on my patio I have seen FOUR (so far) very large passenger jets coming swooping down over my house in less than 30 minutes...heading from southwest to northeast. They are so close I could probably make out tail numbers if the sun wasn't in the background and my eyesight was better...

OMG that's another one... that makes five.

Time between the last one and the previous was only 5 minutes.

Another flying overhead now -- but heading in a different direction (southeast to north west)

Re: Something's Up
From the trajectory I would have to say that they are heading towards DFW.... but they are all pretty LOW so I think that's strange -- normally I would expect them to be higher if they're going to land there....

A friend in Georgia was complaining about the amount of military jets flying over her house early on a Sunday Morning. I believe she is about an hour and a half from a base so it doesn't happen often but it does happen.

North Fort Worth, Texas, I-35 and 820 is the nearest major interchange. I am a couple miles from that.

Two more of these -- one pretty high up which is normal, and another 'low' one. I would assume the two low ones would be heading towards Alliance airport.

Another low one (just now) from the Southwest to the NorthEast -- these that fly this path (this morning) are VERY low.

Re: Something's Up
Just an FYI, I have been living in this house for over 8 years, I sit on my patio in the mornings every weekend.

There's a TON of air traffic here. I am accustomed to it. What I am reporting (specifically the low ones from the SouthWest flying Northeast that look like they are coming in for a landing) is unusual in the fact that its an atypical path across my sky and that they are 'low'.

I tried with my phone but I fumbled for too long and it was too far away by the time I got it ready so the plane was small in the pic. I'll be ready if there's another one.

Re: Something's Up
The more I think about it the more I am convinced that these are taking off either from Carswell or Meacham Field because they are so 'low' over my house. I am still at least 20+ miles from DFW so I don't think they would be that low if they were coming in for a landing.

Re: Something's Up
And another slightly smaller -- reminded me of an awacs but with a square 'thing' on the back and not round and some sort of 'spoiler' type raised area on its tail. Not something I have seen before... not sure what kind of plane it is?

Good Lord that looks like a big mess. Could they be circling, waiting to land. So many in that small area.
