Can someone explain why this plane is flying over belchertown mass almost Ll day every day? There are also fighter jets following it sometimes.

[cavaliersfan08]

@xaviermaster221 that would be the new c-17's and the jets follow it while transporting troops over seas

I live under the flight path of these behemoths... they fly so low on approach, I can visually check heir tire pressure.

Wow, I remember when WPAFB was flying the 141's. Reserve zoomies got the FRED now - AWESOME.

I live in Dayton not far from the base, its amazing to watch these things flying over. At times they look like they are so low you could throw a rock and hit one-which of course you couldnt.

He looks like he only has partial flaps! No wonder that landing is hot.

[grr915]

couldnt tell where the runway starded but seemed like he had trouble getting tht baby down but non the less a great smooth landing

[BubbaCoop]

He touched down between 2,500 and 3,000 feet down the runway. Luckily they have 12,000 feet to play with. They do a lot of training there.
