Four or Five Blackhawks have been operating over Castle Hill since 1530 (now 2130), the night operations are without lights.

Very low altitude, probably about 500 to 1000 AGL yet no NOTAM?

Somebody had better report this to ASIO. Could be clandestine Chinese Operatives.

Watched them attack Fort Gellibrand most summers. Told to move my car lest it get blown away.

Our opinions obviously differ. For "very low" altitude, drop a couple of zero's and make it 5-10 ft.

Not above 200 AGL. With four crew looking out on NVG and flight following, they are far safer than anyone else in that bit of sky. Very little chance of traffic conflict.

Flying around the Sutherland/Loftus area this afternoon. 2 ship formations at possibly 500' (maybe a lower):D
