Any Philadelpia-area dopers see a low-flying plane about 6:30 last night? I was out on the deck and heard the loudest jet noise in my life. The GF came out just then and we both saw a jet (later we figured it was military) whooshing low over the city. At the time, we thought we had just seen another suicide flight, and we both freaked.
yes, i saw them. they were airforce planes doing flyovers of the parade. it was rather unsettling for quite a few people. they rattled the windows and scared the cat. the parade was themed salute to heros or something like that. they had floats dedicated to firefighters, police, and the armed services.
although i am four blocks away from the museum. i didn’t go out in the heat for the festivities. i watched on tv. sometimes what i heard from the window and heard on tv didn’t line up.
