Anyone know if this is common?

Where are you? Maybe they’re out re: the missing girl on Franconia ridge. I know there is a Black Hawk out, but I think C-130s are sometimes used for SAR missions too. Could be wrong.

(None of those are jets)

Thought c-130s were. My bad!

No there were jets on patrol over Manchester as well, but it looked like practice they weren't going very fast.

What area? I mean, if you're next to the airport then yes it's common.

When I worked in Moultonborough I'd hear them overhead about once a month, usually around the same day. I believe it's for training.
This week, there have also been black hawks going out to search for a missing hiker. Not a jet, but figured I'd mention anyway.

Thanks!

They practice in the lakes region diving and straffing runs. They use the mountains to learn to maneuver coming out of mountains and high terrain after. It’s incredible what those pilots can do.

When i was stationed in Germany (army) those air force dicks 😄 would break the sound barrier right over our barracks at least once daily.

I had a a10 inverted over my cabin. I could see the pilot clearly just above the treetops

Where are there a-10s in NH?

I've seen them flying maneuvers over Meredith.

I saw them in Nashua NH they were flying circles around the crown plaza area. Looked like f-15's.

No. Once and a while. I just saw the F16 over Nashua and Merrimack just now. Pretty cool.

It was. At least 4 flyovers.

The Green Mountain Boys out of VT fly around the National Forest for training pretty regularly.

I just moved here and live on the Seacoast. Pease is pretty crazy some days. A friend was telling me about how a European agency came over a few years ago and was buzzing around the mountains in Typhoons.

Manchester near the airport we see them flying very low, of course.

20 minutes west of Concord here, I get them overhead at varying elevations at least twice a week. Mainly weekends. I believe it's partially air national guard. Anything from helicopters to fighter jets, it's always awesome to see. Pretty common I'd say.

Had a helicopter like 2 weeks ago. I waved to it.

If you're on the Seacoast, Pease is the 157th Air Refueling Wing, so the tankers are up flying daily, plus occasional other military jets.

Must be in nashua, sounded like military jets to me. Maybe Russia is coming in or who knows maybe that idiot over in n Korea finally sent a ballistic missle
