Default B-2 Sighting

What time was it when you saw it?


Probably, +/- 1 p.m. (I don't recall the exact time because at the
time we were paying attention to starting a race near Huckleberry
Isld. / Exec. Rocks that later became a "drift" - but that's another
story).

It was flying at quite low altitude, not apparently very fast, was
thus clearly (and when overhead dramatically) visible, traveling down
the main shipping chanel of the sound from the east going towards the
Throgs Neck Bridge.

Saw one of these banking right over my head. They looped around
and made more than half a dozen passes.

We saw it - or, anyway, one - too, Sat p.m. flying from east west down
the L.I. Sound towards N.Y.C. Weird sight . . . .
