At San Diego, while driving on I5 you can get big jets to fly 200-300 ft over you. It is fun pacing your car so that the jet passes you overhead and then watch it land less than 30 seconds later. This happens when the jets are landing going Westwards (slightly NorthWest). Also going on I15 you have the same experience with the Military base (Miramar maybe). This 4th of July while driving to and fro San Diego I had the thrill of being under an F-14, DL 757, SW 737 and some more.
