Olson: Who’s that rattling the windows?

The windows were rattling in the kitchen of our house in Sycamore on Sunday afternoon and we weren’t quite sure why.

Something in the sky overhead was making a racket. I thought maybe a commercial jetliner was flying too low over the area. My wife thought it was a missile attack. (She has a habit of going worst-case scenario.)

We were both wrong. Turns out it was a Navy F/A-18 Hornet fighter jet flying out of DeKalb Taylor Municipal Airport.
