Can you tell me what we saw?

[yy4me]

We just returned to Massachusetts from a long and very nice drive to Indianapolis. Nothing exciting to see other than beautiful countryside and antiques shops on the way out. On the way home, all kinds of funny stuff going on, particularly in Ohio.

First odd sight, huge tail section, propped sideways on a flatbed rolling down the route 70, then a little later, 3 huge flatbeds with long, white tapering hollow things on board, we speculated that they were wings to drone airplanes, I'll bet they were 50 feet in length. Lots if helicopters along the way. The biggest and a little frightening and sinister thing was a plane that flew over us, military green. The plane was so huge and low, we could get a real view of its size. My other half suggested that there would be room left over if you stuffed a wingless 747 inside. Is this a military cargo plane? It was huge. Lots of other trucks with canvas covering weird shaped loads and no company logo's on them. Many military trucks of one type or another.

The whole thing made me want to get home to my family. It looked for all the world like a mass migration of evil things.

My imagination sometimes runs wild but this gave me the creeps. Is there a military base near route 70 in Ohio that would merit this kind of activity?

At home, we see very little of this type of activity. Maybe my old age has caught up with me.

1. Wright Patterson AFB is near Dayton. Is that the area? nt

[yy4me]

7. Yes, Dayton and East from there along route 70.

I probably would not have given the whole thing too much thought except that there was so much of it. That plane, however, was something to have nightmares about.

15. What you saw on the truck...

Possible tail section of an aircraft on the way to the museum?

[yy4me]

19. It was wrapped in some kind of material that looked like

Tyvek. Wrapped to fit the shape of the tail section.

2. I once lived alongside a railroad track and often saw things

like that on flatbed rail cars. I also have seen the same type of caravans on our freeways here. I don't know what they are moving around, airplanes or bombs, but they do it on a regular basis and have for decades.

3. Those were windmills. A wind farm is going up somewhere.

I'm not saying they couldn't possibly have been giant secret government drone aircraft, but... well, actually I guess that is what I'm saying.

[coffeenap]

5. You know, I bet you're right--that is exactly what the op described.

thanks.

4. You saw your tax dollars being donated to the military industrial complex.

Smile! Be happy! It's all for a noble cause!

Or, whatever other line of BS they want to feed you.

[babylonsister]

8. That might have been funny a long time ago.

Now it's just true. :(

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

14. Believe me, I wasn't laughing when I posted it.

And, it would have to have been a very long time ago that it might have been funny.

6. Wind driven generators.

Very common site in my area. Somewhere an alternative energy supply center is being installed. And you got creep-ed out! No worries.

9. Did Any Of The Items You Saw Look Like They Belonged To The Following......

[yy4me]

17. Similar but the opening on the large end was round, the other end

tapered to a point with what looked like a beveled angle the last few feet. For lack of anything to compare it with, just a long, round, tapered cylinder ending with a compressed knife-like edge. I cannot see the edges on the windmill blades but the ends attaching to the pole do not look round.

10. Oh those were just supplies going to Tom Cruise's Xenu bomb shelter..

[Oreo]

11. C5

This is the largest plane the Air Force flies...

[yy4me]

18. This looks about right, how big is it? Could you fit a

wingless 747 in this C%?

[AnneD]

12. It took me a while to figure it out....

but the other day we saw trucks hauling so huge propeller blades on the freeway. They were on their way to west Texas I am sure. You could tell they were propellers but it took a while for me to figure it out because they were so big. It was a sight to see. I was impresses-and few things catch me off guard.

[spanone]

13. the military is chooglin' lot's of money flowing....wars to fight..

[guitar man]

16. yep. wind driven generator blades

going to a wind farm somewhere. a bit of good news in a bleak world.

20. While driving in Houston, I saw a few flatbeds that had a large propellar looking

piece at the back. I don't know what it was and where it was going.
