I'm just curious what you mean by 2 copters flying "in formation". By this, do you simply mean they were in close proximity, and travelling at the same speed in the same direction? If not, what was the shape of the formation? - Larry Hatch >This in itself isn't odd, however to my knowledge there are no >military bases in New Hampshire. Unless they were closed, there are 1) Portsmouth Naval shipyard - and - 2 ) Pease AFB a short distance to the NorthWest of Portsmouth. There may well be other facilities. I found these on the fly. - LH > They > were dark, and I could see no markings, but that could have been > because of my perspective.
