Oh, spank me. So, I left the word "National" out of my post.

...and I didn't say NH had it's own air space - just wondering the reason for the drill....

I have no problem with MA being in our airspace as long as they remember to use their blinkers, pay at the toll booths, and yield at traffic circles....

They were F-15C's out of MA...practicing an air to air intercept of a civilian aircraft entering restricted airspace.

There was an article in the Concord Monitor.

I love the Raptors and A-10's too but the Blackbird is my all-time favorite! Nice picture, Woodsy!

The White mountain area of NH are designated as Yankee 1 AND 2 MOA (Military operating area). This Airspace has been designated as a practice area for various branches of the military. (yeah I am a nerd helo pilot)

If the MA Air National Guard had to stay in MA airspace at 500MPH would they get dizzy...even flying the state lengthwise would seem like they were at Loudon making nothing but left turns every 5 minutes

Actually it was a dry run for the planned takeover of NH by Massachusetts. The foot soldiers are already in place and have been wreaking havoc in local government. The live free or die motto will be changed to Massachusetts, love it or leave it. Resistance is futile.
