So would me and my nekkid lady friend.

Iit's too bad that aiirplanes do not have some kiind of iidentiification numbers painted on them for such a purpose.

There are still more questions than answers about two low-flying planes spotted over Crystal Lake.

More tourists trying to spot Jason.

Canadian poutine smugglers.

Supertroopers 2 location shooting?

Permission to buzz the lake, permission to buzz the lake.

There was a B-2 flyover at a football game I attended. I was sitting in the end zone, and it flew right down the field toward me. Holy shiat, I swear I could have reached up and touched it. That would have been 2002, and it was so farking cool I still have vivid memories of it.

It was also circling the stadium through much of the first half, which was a bit eerie coming about a year after 9/11. "Uh, why is there a stealth bomber circling the stadium?" You could see the outline really well when it banked.

Also, from the comments in the related article:
These planes are owned by the One-World-Government, commanded by the Tri-Lateral Commission and staffed by the Kenyan Air Force. Although the planes are flying all over the country they are seldom seen. They use secret cloaking devices stolen from the CIA by Chinese Commies that make them invisible to radar and most people. Only sharp eyed Real Vermonters can see them. After the Presidential Election Obama will turn US airspace over to the Tri-Lateral Commission. The planes will then carry giant super-electromagnets which will steal our guns. They will also steal all our water and ship it to the Arabs. Lake Mephramagog will be moved to Saudi Arabia, Crystal Lake to Dubai. They fly over the Kingdom because there are more guns per acre there than anywhere else in the US (except Jersey City).

To me, the only important thing in the article is "citizens can own C-130s".

Holy crow. Where do I sign up?

This is sort of odd for Vermont.. Unless you live near Burlington the most air traffic one might see is the black helicopters searching for pot fields.

A airplanes illegal in VT? What's the big deal?

Here's one for $7.5 million.

Though for a bargin $95,000 you could pick up a MiG-21 and get to work MUCH faster.

vicejay: Where I grew up, A-10 Warthogs would fly low-level training missions now & then. It was cool as shiat.

When I was a kid living in SC the same two A-10's few over every single day on training runs. They would fly just above the trees and roll inverted to waive at my brother and me. Was awesome as a little kid.

If you buy your own C130, make sure to get the jet assist option. You could almost take off in your back yard - or was that only on the C128?

I don't see why not, the basic frame is just a transport. Add in some comm gear, missiles and refueling capability and thats where you start getting into trouble

So you're saying I can't get one of these?

My wife and I were up in New Hampshire a couple of years ago during leafing season. We drove the Kank and stopped at this scenic vista point with the mountains in front of us, trees all decked out in autumnal splendor, and a large hill to our backs. It was awe inspiring, so much so that my wife turned and said to me, "you know this is almost a sacred place." No sooner did she get the words out than two Warthogs came over the hill to our back, making that unmistakeable eardrum-shattering noise they make. Thus ended our sacred moment in New Hampshire.

I'll only take AC-130s.

If you want to make some quick money, smuggle power tools into canada.

They're almost double the price they are here in the states. I have a friend in upstate NY, and I've been trying to get him to lend me his boat for a few trips across the saint lawrence.

Ollie North? You up to your old tricks again?

The C-130s that Ollie was using were supplied to him by Oppenheimer (DeBeers). My old partner was responsible for refueling operations and crews when they were in transit, on the ground, in Angola.

Bottom line (and this is only a guess) is that your logic jump of drug bales falling out of the sky is correct. We (the royal "we") are the cartels (thank you Zappata Oil, et al).

Picture of the plane and pilots:

Thanks for the link! I've never seen one take off, only ridden on them. I always wondered what it looked like while I was holding on for dear life. The frames shake like an SOB.

If true that is new. For a long time they weren't allowed in civilian hands for some reason.

How witheringly hip thou art. I'm sorry if you missed the invisible sarcasm tags surrounding "sacred moment". The experience did give me an appreciation for the metric pants load of poop your average tank driver must feel when he hears and sees a Warthog approaching him.

Oh noes! Fartbongo has shifted his military bombing campaign from Northern Michigan, to our Green Mountains! Comence with the gnashing of teeth and rending of garments!

damn, when did they use that?

It's been too long and I can't remember the spec's, but these things can land in small fields or on short beaches. The jets help them take off on very short runways. In the video the pilots were probably babying the plane and going for max vertical. If they wanted they probably could have taken off in the first 100 yards. They can also fly slow, about 100 knots. Good plane to have for special ops when you want to land someplace they don't think you can.

Wow, have a cup of coffee and a Krispy Kreme, man. Wasn't being snarky, just posting in a plane thread. Sheesh.

My SO works near there, on the Canadian side. That will be the most exciting thing to happen for YEARS to come.
