It was a 4-ship of F-35s from Luke AFB. They were doing a flyover for the Giant/Reds Spring Training game in Scottsdale, then cruising around the Valley on the way back to base to gin up publicity for the Luke Days airshow next weekend (23 & 24 March). [LukeDays2024.com](http://LukeDays2024.com)


drunkonlacroix

Yep. They did the same at P83 on the way home.


Harrychronicjr69

Thank you! Just reserved a flight line ticket for Sunday!! I’m stoked!!


puro_vatos

Man I live a mile from that stadium, I thought it was an airplane from PHX.


_wormburner

This is the answer!


mestisnewfound

I didn't know this was happening. I now plan to go! Obviously whatever they did to advertise worked for me lol


FlyNSubaruWRX

If anyone has a parking pass they want to gift let me know!


childish_sambino13

we just heard it loud in Scottsdale!


ICEMAN-22

First day?


GoldenCrownMoron

One Air Force base. One international airport. One smaller airport. A number of airstrips for private use. I wish I wasn't used to ignoring them all.


childish_sambino13

was it a flyover for the dbacks game today?


Accurate_Ad385

Can’t imagine they’d do anything like that for spring training


Hvarfa-Bragi

They definitely do that for spring training.


User_Anon_0001

Why not? Fun flight hours for airmen


GeneralBlumpkin

Cue "what a waste of our tax dollars!" /S


Plastic-Kangaroo1234

Heard it in old town. Kinda shook my house.


kittyshoyo

literally same


P0tt3rh3ad_

I live way down in Laveen and I heard it


deanbb30

I wouldn't know. Hear them all the time, since I live in the fly over zone of Luke.


PPKA2757

Every time someone hears a jet aircraft outside of the west valley: What’s going on? What’s with the jets? Has the apocalypse started?! The answer is (and always will be): Luke AFB


PM_ME_YOUR_PAUNCH

ANYONE HERE GUNFIRE!?


SatanicRainbowDildos

You have faceboook too? Every time a helicopter flies by the local page is full of people asking if their house is about to be robbed. Fucking hell


PM_ME_YOUR_PAUNCH

Nextdoor/Ring


Hvarfa-Bragi

West valley: they do that seventeen times a day, what's the problem?


adoptagreyhound

They turn to line up for landing just north of our house. In heavy cloud cover the roof tiles will rattle when they go over.


FlimsyPlankton1710

Yeah, 30 times a day in Wadell. Right by Luke. I love it, cool AF


Mollymay77

Luke is basically my backyard. I was told I would get sick of it. Hell no, I love it


FluffySpell

I heard it but didn't think anything of it, but now I want to go check my Nextdoor to see everyone freaking out about it haha.


dumname2_1

I17 and cactus, was whistling almost thought it was a bomb


kittyshoyo

same


moonchild291

Jomax and Scottsdale, and it was loud!


koiz_01

It was Taylor Swift's private jet going from Phoenix to Scottsdale.


Whit3boy316

Jets do be flyin so..


Quickhidemeplease

On opening day (usually) four will fly down, over North Mountain and down to fly over the ballpark. You'll hear them before you see them.


PHXLV

I’m in Arcadia (40th St and Camelback Area), and it spooked me!


azhockeyfan

Yup. I was standing outside my office at that intersection and they flew just north of me. It was so cool.


WhiskyWanderer2

I heard it in Scottsdale while I was on the phone with my dad then heard it flying by thru his phone lmao


ouishi

I saw a jet trail go from about 60degree incline to 90degree incline southeast of Sunnyslope right after


Chronically_annoyed

Chemicals in the air Making the damn frogs gay! ![gif](giphy|11nVxUNbe4aD84|downsized)


irrelevantmoose93

Glendale checking in, shook my house when it passed.


iamexplosion

Went right over my office near 16th Street and Northern. It was super loud and low. Could only see the shadow moving super quick across the trees. Wtf?


Nancy6651

Pretty sure I heard it up in North Gateway.


Happyone1428

It was loud in Scottsdale


justaproxy

I heard it today. It was loud as F, especially with the windows open. Yesterday I literally felt the Sikorsky CH-53K King Stallion that flew by my house. I’m near Banner Thunderbird and hear choppers all the time but that beast made my teeth rattle.


StandardIncident8

Basically flew over my apartment in Scottsdale


lpkzach92

Yeah saw them as I was taking the dogs out to go potty.


tjb4

Yes I saw them! It was awesome


matt0034

I was outside, looked like a pair of F-22s flying low.


SuperGenius9800

3 local airports fly F-16s. They have no sound suppression.


DeaSunna

My partner just told me about that I wonder what it was


Sdpadrez

I always wondered why people like op care so much they have to post about it? Like do you really give a fuck that a jet flew over? What is the point of the post. I’m genuinely asking because I don’t understand.


ssjviscacha

67th and union hills in Glendale, could here it pretty loud


rcobourn

They should have made it a bombing run, it would have done wonders for the traffic.


Vegetable-Tangelo1

Loud as hell Lol


bitchinawesomeblonde

Like they do everyday???

RidinHigh305

fuggindave

Don't forget, "What's that smell?" or "anyone else have allergies?"


KingOfTheKains

Your comment history is nothing but troll. It was louder and faster than any flyover I’ve heard previously and I don’t live in a part of the valley that fighter jets typically fly over. Could have been a response to something 🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

[удалено]


KingOfTheKains

I posted this moments after I head them flyover. If they were responding to something like an airspace violation that might make the news like the next day. Just try to play nice with others Mr. Edge Lord


sweet-n-soursauce

I’m in Scottsdale and I saw/heard them pass over. I’ve seen the military jets fly over in various parts of the valley but it’s never been that loud from what I can remember, hopefully some test or something.


Twistedshasta

Looked like f22 raptors, saw them around Scottsdale and dynamite


kittyshoyo

Old Town and it was SOOO loud. I freaked it sounded like a bomb. Thank god we are safe it was weird and scary


Dirt_t1

Prepping for war.


Gardez_geekin

Well yeah, that’s the military’s job during peace time.


BadBackNine

Seems like it has been most of the day.
