I live in a very rural area (on the new madrid), Massive military plane just flew over my house LOW!!!!!! WTF!
It looked like a giant military plane with a black hawk helicopter! There are NO military bases anywhere near where I live. They were flying so low, and it was extremely loud.

I dont know the name of the helicopter but it had two blades, like this

I live in a VERY rural area in Southern Illinois, and this has never happened before.

The large cargo looking aircraft had two long "strings" attached to both it's wings.

WTF is going on?

I wonder if this has anything to do with the New Madrid fault.

It was just a tranport heli, most likely absolutely nothing to do with New Madrid.

I live in San Diego... Last week we had tons of military action going on Jets were hauling ass back and fourth and the picture you posted of that big military helicopter thingy... We had 3 of those flying very low... However they were not camo color they were like an off white color and very LOUD...
I called our local news station and they said they did not know anything about it... But I figured that...

Chinooks are pretty common and the corp of engineers use em with cables attached to move things like bridging pieces and whatnot. Or to ferry troops around.

That's a Chinook.

We have them fly over our city sometimes because of our National Guard post here. (The 1544th)

Those things are loud.

I thought we were having an earthquake. Windows were shaking and everything.

Thanks for that.

Yea, They had cables attached to the larger cargo plane. I have no idea why they would be flying so low though.

The local ANG base did a flyover for the passing of a high ranking officer, it buzzed the tree tops of the local national cemetery.

So many people called and complained with every reason from 9/11 to invasion by the UN.

I have no idea what '2 long strings' hanging off the plane would be....

Carrying the firelight on your face
