I've seen multiple aircraft in formation with only one transponder on and the track seems like the ones I saw, but they apparently were just headed downwind of cho before they landed. I crossed 29 and headed east so i didn't observe more of the flight.

Anyhow, probably not related to the visit, but they were there more than 3 hours.
