I worked a Dam Job (giggle) right under a Military Training Route (MTR).
The common traffic was flights of EA6Bs from NAS Whidbey.
They were middle of course, maybe 800' off the river when they went by.
One day some hot dog in an Aardvark came hooning through so low he went behind a low hill from me. Then he popped up about 15 degrees nose high and did a barrel roll down low.
It was early 90's and I never saw another one on the routes.
