Hurricane Irene Sends Navy Planes To Escambia County
August 27, 2011
There was a little extra noise in the skies over Escambia County Friday as dozens of planes being evacuated from the path of Hurricane Irene flew in to Pensacola Naval Air Station.
Over 40 of the planes will remain in the base until it’s safe to return to the East Coast. Other planes, including several F-18’s stopped at Pensacola NAS for fuel before flying on elsewhere.
