| Few weeks ago approx early Sept. two f 18's heading SW about 40 mi out of Chicago buzzed the shop I work at. Time was about 5pm. They were very low and appeared to be armed. Couldn't find anything on the web on what they were up to. Anyone? |

They've found you. They ARE out to get you. Beware!  |

| Do you live near Purdue University? If so, VR1640 is a low level route that runs through there, and there's a SW leg in the vicinity. |

No, this happened NW of Chicago, in Crystal Lake IL. A freind of mine located North of my location saw them also. He claims that they were heading east at around the same time. They must have circled for some reason. |

| To correct the last post, my friend saw them heading West. I do suppose the Route near Purdue could easily be extended by 60 Mi in a few minutes also. |
