    3 A-10's flying today

    Anyone see the 3 A-10's fly over the island today? They were flying from southwest to northeast, i was guessing they flew out of FRG?

    Would it make sense if I said I think I just heard them flying above Poughkeepsie?

    well they weren't from FRG, but I did hear one of the student aircraft tell the tower he "just saw 3 A-10's" fly over him. The tower was not impressed at all, just gave a "ok."

    Mets opening day is Monday, which for the past few years has featured a flyover of 3 A10s. Maybe they came in early to hang out.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
