They've been over this way at least twice. My little plane watchers spotted them before I heard them.

That'll be easy to remember.

Are they going to land back at Easterwood after the flyover?
Yes, they were/ are at the game.

If you missed seeing them, I think they are still here for a few days. Still parked on the far ramp.
There's at least one currently in the sky
I think they may be heading out now.
Sounds like it!

Yes, I'm currently acting like a child and running outside of my office every time the helicopters fly over. No one else seems to care.
Navy Leap Frogs ??
You're not alone. I just ran outside to watch
Parachute team. They will jump from a C130 and land on the field if it is not too windy.happyinBCS said:

After 4 Kyle Field practice flyovers, the helicopters appear to have landed on the KCLL pad nearest the Fire Training School main entrance (Nuclear Science Rd).
There were on Simpson Drill Field for part of the day.
Practice photos from this afternoon.
Yes, probably around 10:45 (right before National Anthem and flyover).MyNameIsJeff said:Huh? Is this happening tomorrow?dubi said:Parachute team. They will jump from a C130 and land on the field if it is not too windy.happyinBCS said:

Saw the choppas earlier
Currently at Gate 12 for dinner.
The Leap Frogs were getting into this plane, had an Aggie flag out as well, I assumed doing a practice run over Kyle Field. But no so if they're doing it from a C130 tomorrow.

I'm no pilot, but I don't think that plane is a C-130. Although it does appear to be near the edge of the strip.toolshed said:

Apologies as I assumed it was a big plane. Perhaps they are jumping out of a tiny plane.
In fairness, they are definitely jumping out of big planes in their YouTube videos.

And there was a big plane doing touch and goes at CLL today. I assumed it was part of the parachute jumpers.
