[Scan-DC] NASA P-3B aircraft test flight tomorrow

[Rick Hansen]

Yesterday afternoon around 3:30 it went south-north between Rt 1 and I-95 in
Beltsville. It was clearly visible from Costco. Just a run-of-the-mill P3,
really low. Watching it make a turn at that low altitude was interesting.

nose and the NASA markings..

I think I might have seen a P-3 last night. I went out about 9:40 p.m., and
I 
ad my binoculars with me. I was going to take a look at Arcturus, Saturn -
the 
sual suspects. It was dark, but I am in Alexandria, so there is a lot of
light 
treaming skyward. Right around that time, a plane with straight wings - not 
wept back - and four Allison T-501 engines flew over Alexandria, going from
NW 
o SE, in the direction of Andrews. It was low, and I watched it though my 
inoculars. It could have been a C-130, but I don't think it's common to see 
hem after dark.
