    well obviously from the video I'm nowhere near atterbury. there is a small municipal airport about a mile away but really only cesnas and commuter jets.

    They are most likely out of Terre Haute, flying practice runs over Attebury. I've seen them fly as far north as Greenwood. Probably depends on wind direction and how many are in the exercise. I remember being on my way to Crosley a couple of years ago. And the whole area was swarming with military stuff and Black Hawks flying over head, and wondering What....... Found out from News that night it was a mock chemical attack or dirty bomb Sim at the old Musckatatuck facility. Neat to see all that hardware around.

    A pair of A10's buzzed Memorial Stadium last night at IU before the game started.

    Was one of the neatest things I've experienced...

    I feel like the planes were in the backyard because they heard you have the Ferrari out last night making some noise with it::):

    I'm getting buzzed with some Seagrams 7. I had a couple of them pop up over me on the highway once, and just about leave a crease on the roof of my car back in the 80s. I didn't see them until they were almost on top of me. Awesome plane.

    About a week ago around 200 in the afternoon...driving down a country road with windows down and radio on and from out of nowhere 2 of them flew what seemed like a few feet above me and then flew off! Scared the crap out of me and made me almost fill my pants and realize what people must feel like when being hit by those guys! After I stopped shaking it was quite an experience but very cool! They are intimidating to say the least

    My boys and I saw two flying ENE here in northern Miami County. We used to see the A-10’s a lot when Grissom was an active base. Those were OD green. The two we saw today were gray. I’ve always enjoyed watching then fly over and kind of miss it.

    A few weeks ago, I was seeing them every day for about 3 days straight up in the Muncie area.

    Queue the usual suspects with the conspiracy theory about how they're training to kill/enslave us all. :laugh:
