that 3 or 4 of them were seen flying over my farm a few weeks ago. Suspected to be there for work to be done. I did not see them so I have nothing really to say, we get a LOT of air traffic over the farm with the base so close but I know nothing about any of that. It is fun to watch some of the things flying in. This case makes me a bit nervous so I am hoping those who reported them were blowing smoke.
