She:"They are flying over as part of the Veterans' Day ceremony."
He: "How do you know that?"
She: "Because my husband is flying one of the airplanes -- you got a
problem with that?"
I like her style.
We had a similar incident in Iowa City in September, when the SX-300
group was doing their fly-in here. They were doing formation fly-bys
over the city -- which 99.5% of the citizenry absolutely LOVED -- when
some idiot called the police complaining about "the noise".
The cops actually came to the airport and inquired about what was
going on -- but, of course, had no jurisdiction and didn't really know
what to do other than "respond". So they just looked around and
left.

Police have to respond whether they think the request is ridiculous or not.
Reminds me of a buddies party that had the cops show up for noise, cop said
turn it down, and if he got another call he would be back, but it would take
him a LONG time to get back to that side of town.
