Saw a C-5 last Thursday at Alan Henry. It flew over at about 500ft. Those things are freaking huge!

That's really cool, I hate when the prop cuts your line though.

A couple of years ago on Lake Houston, a couple of Zeros flew over in formation at about 5000ft heading North East returning from the Air Show down at Ellington Field. Man I could hear them probably 5 minutes before I saw them. Pretty distinctive sound and definitely cool to see.

mostly likely Texans modified to look like Zeros.

The F-16's out of Ft Worth used to use the dam at PK as a target and when they pulled up you couldn't hear for a while. Had a B-1 bomber from Abilene made a low pass down broadway on PK and when he got 2nd gear it shook the trees and made the fish quit biting

Many years ago I was diving a shipwreck off of Milwaukee WI. I just got done with my dive and was facing north standing on the dive platform. One of my buddies who was helping me with my gear (facing south) all of a sudden got this horrified look on his face and told me to get down. Just as I ducked here comes the Blue Angles flying team SMOKING over our heads and making power turns just on the other side of our boat. It was LOUD! They were turning over the lake to make another pass at the Milwaukee Summerfest grounds where they were performing an air show. I'll bet those pilots had a good laugh over scaring the SH** out of us on the dive boat. I have no idea how low they were but it was very low and incredibly loud!

I've fished Lake Worth all of my life. Had my share of fly overs out there, but when you fish at the end of a runway you should expect it. I saw a small float plane at Eagle Mountain either last year or the year before. It was kind of surreal.

A little off, but I sat in my boat and watched the fire fighting air plane loading at LOP during the fires a couple of years ago, those guys can really fly, quite a site to see.
