Occasionally during the summer I've seen both fly over my house. Normally the sound gives them away.

I think that the photo posted would have to be a pretty elaborate hoax or stage. What makes it for me is what looks like a rag-top 40's vintage car parked 'way off in the distance to the left. Stage photos rarely include that kind of detail. I guess someone could photo-shop the lines of aircraft, but it doesn't look like a PS job to me.



Know that feeling - there's a Lockheed Constellation preserved near here by the Save A Connie foundation. Not too many left. It used to be displayed prominently at the Kansas City Downtown airport, but now it has a place indoors. Occasionally we would see it flying (it hasn't flown for a decade or more now). It flew over the house once not long after we were married and I shouted "It's that Connie!" and ran out to see it. It flew right over! After coming back in, huge smile painted on, she wanted to know how I knew what it was. "Nothing else sounds like four 18-cylinder radials!"
