i live about 120 miles from minneapolis and i am in the flight path from there to ohare. we frequently have 727s, 747s, 777s, etc. flying however high up where you can still see it's a plane, not a spec (i don't know anything about plane flying heiht, just that i can clearly still see they are planes, not specks of light or whatever).

my kids and i were just out in the front pasture shooting .22s, and three large jetliners came in to view from behind us. they were flying in a V formation, and they were EXTREMELY close together, like something you'd see at an airshow or something. we watched them fly southeast for about 15 minutes until they disappeared from view. they never broke formation, and they kept climbing as they went.

it was freaky odd how close together they were, like they were fighter jets or something, only they were huge jetliners.

oh well, never seen anything like it ever, and it kind of freaked me out. i tried to take a pic with my phone, but they were too high up to show up on the crappy phone sensor. anybody ever see anything like that?

Intriguing. Maybe it was Air Force One, with support. Maybe it was Obama's extended family flying in from Kenya.

Years ago a tooling company in Detroit (Valeron) had a pair of Lear bizjets. The pilots were vietnam era. I was told there was a corporate meeting that required both Lears to haul corporate people to the meeting. Cloudy day but they took off wingtip to wingtip, entered the cloud layer and a couple thousand feet higher exited the cloud layer still wingtip to wingtip. Scared the shit out of the execs and the pilots were instructed never to do it again.

Biden's in Mpls for a fundraiser, maybe his escort? Were they headed west?

He was in Granite City, ILL down by St. Louis today too.

Biden uses Metro East port to make the case that federal stimulus spending works (http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/biden-uses-metro-east-port-to-make-the-case-that/article_51da757f-7d87-5b3b-bd77-7ae34a1c24f3.html)

maybe they were experimenting in saving fuel. "drafting" off each other like bicycle riders.

works good unless someone hits the brakes. at 600 mph.

About five years back I saw what looked to me like 2 military style aircraft flying in formation about 500 foot elevation. They were a dull gray with jet engines mounted on the wings. They looked like bomber style aircraft. Very startling sight that I've never seen since then.

It was probably their dog's private jet with accompaniments.
