A Small Plane that Sounded SUPER LOW Just Flew Over Twice!
Am I paranoid? I know I have never heard planes flying this low around here! Helecopters sometimes...

5. I had to call my local police once to check up on one that did
the same thing late at night! They referred it to the airport and it soon disappeared. I never found out what it was.

4. OH SHIT! It's the mosquito plane
I was just about to say that it sounded like a cropduster. I'm pretty familiar with the sound of a cropduster.

12. We had this happen here the other day
Over the beach and the pier. A guy was flying maybe 10 feet off the ground. Takes a lot of skill as a pilot but is incredibly dangerous and stupid. Also he can get his ticket pulled by the FAA. Lots of people got his tail # and they are investigating.

Always get the plane tail # if you can, and report it to the FAA. They take this seriously. The general rule is that you can't be within 500 feet of a structure or people.

14. Violating Air Space
They do it over my house all the time. An old plane almost crashed into me, a couple months prior to 9/11. I thought it was deliberate.
Please pass the tin-foil. ;-)

(I'm serious though)
