The Thunderbirds do their training out in that general area, they are stationed at Nellis but their practice field is about half an hour outside of Vegas. You guys also drove near Tonopah and Creech, you can feel pretty certain there was a UAV flying overhead for a good part of that stretch.

Only time it got old for me was when my tent was fairly damned close to a runway in Uzbekistan. Hell, was only gone a day or two at an airbase in Qatar and to F-16s took off together and it was cool again.

haha hell yeah man... that's awesome. I had that happen once in my dad's '63 vette on highway 40 heading west to vegas. An F101 voodoo did the loudest fucking flyby I've ever seen.
