Well, did anyone else see the B-52 Bomber today over New York just after 11am... ??
Fairly low too.. :D
Quite a sight. Curved over the harbor and then flew up the Hudson.
There was another one that did this last month as well.
I simply can't remember a B-52 over NYC ever before this summer...
Hope to see one again...providing they aren't taking our measure for some type of Cloverfield event.

Bill - you would've had a good view. I'd be very interested in any information.
Again, this is a repeat event this summer, and it's unprecedented.
He changed course a couple of times as well...lots of black smoke at that point. At one time I thought it was going to veer over and maybe get onto the EWR approach, but that didn't happen obviously.

Sounds like a wonderful sight, never seen one fly.
Over the last 30 odd years in London we've had Lancaster bombers flying over with Spitfires on special occassions.
In spring 2001 i was walking over the wobbly millenium bridge when i saw Concorde fly over wow that was an awsome sight..

Maybe it was returning from an airshow... either from Westover ARB or NAS Brunswick?
