Thanks Daryll
Obviously not mil. Could have fooled me judging by the roar. Must have
been pushing it to get out of the area to avoid the storm that came through
about 10 minutes later.

FIV706 departed Hanscom at 2105Z, it was a Citation X (C750). It went to
Detroit, so if it was headed SE out of Hanscom, it had to make a good turn
and head north for a bit.

As I write this, it's already left Detroit and headed west.
