Night Maneuvers
Not sure any of you saw it, but you may have heard it. Last night, about 7ish, at least two of those Navy planes did several touch and go's at Laconia Airport. The planes would take off into the west, one right behind the other, and start to fly towards downtown. They would then bank hard to the north and fly right over Paugus Bay, lifting as they broke to the east. The lights were illuminated under the wings and the engines as well as the belly were visable. It was a treat to see these planes so low on Pearl Harbor Day. Honestly, it was kind of freaky as I had watched several shows on Pearl/WW2 throughout the day. Hearing and seeing propped military planes was a trip! They did the same route at least 5 or 6 times then flew off to the west as they did all summer.
