    Saw a V-22 today...

    I was in Westminster VT working traffic control and I heard a weird aircraft sound. Like a combination of the local Medivac Helo (DHART 1 + 2 EC-135's) and a moderately loud jet like an early turbojet Lear.

    I'm looking around and at about 5,500 feet is a V-22 hauling A$$. Was in and out of audible and visual range in less and a minute and a half. Looked to be heading along the Connecticut river valley. Seemed strange to see one, single ship here in the backwoods of Vermont.
    You can't take the sky from me...

    Maybe they were getting in a cross-country after dropping off Obama's dog at Martha's Vineyard.

    Okay, thread over. TARPSBird wins.

    The last one out of the thread shut the lights off and lock the door.

    In before the lock!

    Oh, and I was thinking the same thing as TARPSbird.
    My computer: ABS Gladiator Gaming PC featuring an Intel 10700F CPU, EVGA CLC-240 AIO cooler (dead fans replaced with Noctua fans), Asus Tuf Gaming B460M Plus motherboard, 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD, EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 video card, dead EVGA 750 watt power supply replaced with Antec 900 watt PSU.

    ...and maybe they were doing their job; defending our country.
    ...things will go as they will; and there's no use hurrying to meet them.
