AMAZING thing happened as I left my house after noon,

this HUGE plane flew over my house and head, I pointed camera UP, with no use of viewfinder or focus, and look at what Nikon caught! Was much larger to my eye than the pic shows; could actually see some 'instrumentation!'

Haven't flown in YEARS, haven't seen ANY plane fly that route over my house, the way-up/far out planes are either to/from Naval Air Station Patuxent River OR international to/from Baltimore BWI!

Her house is about 4 miles south of mine, close to Naval air station. We both live @ river's edge. She wrote 'it was so low and LOUD at our house I heard the mechanics…I honestly thought it was crashing!!!!!!!'
