Really loud! Anyone else in LA hear it?

1. That doesn't sound good. How was it loud?

Normal engine noise or something else?

[Liberal_in_LA]

11. roar of military jet

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. Nope, didn't hear it.

Perhaps the pilot needed to abort the landing for whatever reason...

It happens.

3. It might be that North Korean Stealth missile returning to its base.

4. Spooked, a little?

Most military combat jets are super loud at low altitude. You never heard one before in Westwood?

[Liberal_in_LA]

10. nope. That was first time. wow

5. Almost every evening

we have a C5 Galaxy fly over on it's way to the Airlift Squadron near Springfield MA.

It is an impressive looking thing in the air and you can hear it coming and going a long time.

8. Yes. I'm in Century City, and just got an email from building management explaining it.

"For those of you that may have heard the recent jet flying by and are concerned as to what it was, it’s been confirmed by the Santa Monica Air Tower that this was a jet contracted by UCLA for an event they are having today. They also confirmed that the jet was at the FAA regulation of 2000 feet and that is a one-time event and will not be occurring again today."

It was incredibly loud.

17. Poor spoiled residents of beverly hills...

Try living in a city like Virginia Beach, Va with a Jet base right in the middle of it!
