3 huge planes southbound by foothills?

[cl]

Does anyone know what the three *huge* planes flying southbound (west of kipling)...at 1:45p 4.27.08?

I had a friend say she saw one flying the same place Friday around 3:00p.

Any ideas, they looked like they were military more than slurry bombers, unless they were new planes...

Thanks

The *huge* planes you saw were three, C-17's that spent the weekend here @ Buckley AFB. They stayed here because of an Airshow going on in Charleston and coudn't go home.

An airshow is not an airshow without those though. =)

This probably explains the two Chinook's that flew over head yesterday afternoon out here in the middle of nowhere.
