What's this?

Yes, you are on an LLTR (Low Level Training Route). That particular ......


one starts just east of Cape Charles, heads NW toward Fredricksburg, goes south of Winchester, then turns SW, roughly paralleling the VA/WVA border. Somewhere in there (been a while since I have flown it), it turns SE and goes directly over Smith Mountain Lake. Just north of Danville it turns easterly and ends in the vicinity of Suffolk. You very likely saw them before they made the turn to go SE.

Yes, it is unusual to see that many C-17's in formation, they must be doing some sort of exercise with the Army.
