I live on the Big Island of Hawaii, in one of the most rural areas (Puna)

I have never seen a large airplane pass over my house in 19 years living here.

45 minutes ago (3:10-3:15ish), three large planes with lights different than any commercial jet I have ever seen passed over my house one after another, flying low like they were landing. The closest airport is 20 miles away, and the planes land from the opposite direction.

What the fuck?

Calm down...ok here's what you should do.

Quick. Go make a TL blog about it.

Oh...well...good job. Sounds like you got the situation covered.

Maybe they just constructed a new airport overnight right next to your house without you noticing.

actually it's funny, my flight from chongqing to beijing a few days ago got delayed for 3 hours, and they said it was because the PRC air force was having war games in the airspace near beijing

Isn't this how the movie Pearl Harbor started?

More seriously, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Occasionally you see strange unexpected things like this which turn out to be nothing.
