I've been observing the daily sorties of the C-130s taking off from the Moffett airfield for sometime now. But does anyone else in Sunnyvale notice? I recently asked a few people if they ever noticed the hulky cargo/bomber fly overhead...and most of them say no! ??? These giant 4 propeller planes have been circling over the Sunnyvale and Mountain View skies for the past many years and surprisingly no one seems to notice. How do people miss observing a plane (the size of a decent sized multi-storey building) fly above them? Even Ramya and Nivi notice it every time.

Sometimes they fly so low that you can almost touch them, especially if you are on 237 next to the Sunnyvale golf course. No kidding! I've been to the old Sunnyvale Mall to see the C-130s up and close...what an awesome sight to behold when they pass literally a few meters above you.
