Collings B-24 seen a couple of times today flying down Sunset Blvd towards the beach. Sounds good when going right over the house at 1000 feet or so.

It pays to have a well trained ear-heard, identified, and then saw an RC-3 SEABEE in the hazy sunshine

A Cessna 195 cruised over my house about 4:30 this afternoon, while I was watching the final episode of Season 2 of Ice Pilots NWT on the DVD player. Don'tcha just love the sound of a radial engine?

Whoever invented the "Pause" feature on video players is my hero. :wink:

A red & white CAP-10 heading north out of Felts Field.

I can't say I've seen it around here.

Heard the sound of a helicopter approaching BMS and looked out my office window to see a MH-53 flying East over the Speedway. Managed to get one decent shot of her as she passed by.

Typical Sunday in Bluff City, TN today.
The WellmontOne Air Transport (Messerschmitt-bolkow-blohm BK 117 A-4) flew over my house on its way back home at the Bristol Motor Speedway helipad.
A couple of 747s passed overhead in the late evening sunlight. One left a contrail, the second did not.

Anybody know of any big props that would have been over western North Carolina today? I just heard something that sounded big fly over but didn't see it because trees were in the way. It was very loud, definitely multi-engine, radial, and heading southeast. Any ideas?

I think Fifi and Diamond (Ol'927) Lil are in the area... Tour stop in Charlotte.

Must have been one of them, unless Memphis Belle or Chuckie were in the area. Don't think it was anything twin-engine, it was making too much noise. Thanks!
