Retired USAF. Been in San Antonio several years. Those aircraft and their flight patterns are fairly normal.
Texan2, T-38 are trainers used by the Air Force to train new pilots. C-5 and occasionally C-17 are brought here for depot level maintenance such as upgrades, major refurbishing, etc.
What is odd to me is that over the last 3 years or so, I have seen quite an increase in AWACS flying patterns over the city, often at low-ish altitude around 15k feet AGL.
Thanks for the info. I head that's where Trump was going. I was wrong.
I had to triple check it before I got it right myself. If DJT was going to be at THE Alamo, I was taking the day off.
