It was hard to miss...and sleep through.

Folks in the Bangor area last night might have been startled by the loud roar of jet engines. Though it's not uncommon to hear the dull roar of the hustle and bustle at Bangor International Airport, these were some special guests.

Two military B-1 Lancers took off from BIA a little past midnight last night. The roar of the jets engines were hard to miss.

Around this time last year Bangor was rattled awake by a group of Israeli F-16 fighter jets.
