A couple of years ago I was at a house up on the top of Red Hill and they were doing some low level training. For whatever their reason,they were dropping flares of some kind as they were fling around overhead. It was quite interesting to watch.
My house looks at Red Hill and they passed by between it and Red Hill at probably 300 feet- it was pretty awesome. I took a pic on their return over Berry Pond and will try to post it later. Probably scared the bejesus out of some private pilot coming out of Mboro Airport!
