Can anyone find out if there’s something happening in the air over Montana? The only planes we EVER see here are tiny ones rarely in the summertime (tourists) and the only helicopter is a Life Flight to the hospital once in a great while- tonight after dark there was a helicopter I saw headed North and about the same time one appeared to be headed in the Northwest direction AND about 15 min. later a plane headed Northwest direction- it may be nothing but whatever’s going on is NOT NORMAL for here- around Flathead Lake area-
