Was headed home thru Bellmore late morning yesterday, stopped for a few minutes, I start hearing an extremely loud fighter jet overhead, sounded like the air show, except its not. I look up and circling over north Bellmore is a single fighter doing a 180. He comes down lower and I can see its an F-15 fighter. I also see a single engine plane flying towards the SE, hoping he knows theres a fighter over his head. The jet eventually heads south towards Jones Beach, but still doing 180's. Eventually the jet flys away.

Seems the single engine private plane had entered restricted NY airspace, due to Biden speaking at the UN and they scrambled a jet from Massachusetts to chase the private plane away. Pretty cool to watch.
