Questions about a C17 flying at an altitude of 825 FT through residential areas. Including my house.
About 10 minutes ago we had a C17 fly right over our house. I thought it was extremely low, roughly 500-1000 feet in altitude. It damn near shook our house.
I went on flightradarx.com, and was able to locate the exact plane. It shows the altitude at 825 feet. In my time in this area, I've never seen or heard a plane come so low by our neighborhood.
I'm not saying this is some habbening or that it's overly exciting, I'm just curious to know if anyone would have information as to why they might be flying so low? How common is this? Any insight at all would be appreciated.
I live near the Pine Castle impact range, and I see helicopters constantly operating below 1000 ft. I call all the time they do not care.
I see the same thing in my rural area, early morning going same flight path, always a helicopter, always just an over the tree line, and they never show up on flight radar trackers. It’s not military.
yesterday at a friends they were going look at the plane it is blue! I said the pilot is doing something illegal and I never could explain to them why they just thought it silly
Wow, just wow!
