Moments ago REACH 953 cut a  fine figure as he banked toward my  house, 
against a pitch black sky,  toward Patrick AFB's Rnwy 02.  He is a  
Charleston 
C-17A arriving  from outside the country, most likely from a Central  or 
South 
American  site.  He will be doing an ERO of two single pallets and  two T-3  
pallets, before RTBing home to Charleston.  He looks to be on the   ground 
here for 
over an hour; so I have some ground comms to listen to   tonight.
