Followed by an obviously powerful white propeller plane fly probably around 1000 feet directly over your head during a smoke break at work? Then while leaving work see another white plane covered with radar devices pass by less than 1/2 mile from the first plane, flying at nearly the same altitude? I have.

The extremely powerful prop spewing fog was an aerobatic aircraft with a smoke generator. These very light and very strong airplanes perform at airshows across the globe and use their smoke generators to trace lines in the sky to accentuate the precision of their manuvers as the smoke lingers and gives a visual proof of what the aircraft and pilot have done.
These aircraft practice at low altitude to simulate airshow conditions where they often perform at mere feet above the ground. Also, the second aircraft was one of two things. An aged military aircraft with a radar array in the belly practicing for or possibly participating in an airshow as a war bird, which is a privately owned ex military airplane. The only other explaination is the second aircraft was severley damaged as any civilian aircraft with a radar capability has the array in the nose cone invisible from that height.
I'm guessing you say an airshow practice

So? Never had a smoke break in my entire life, but I've seen any number of aircraft equipped with experimental radar flying around within half a mile of where I worked. I worked at the Royal Aircraft Establishment where we had radar research aircraft.
Oh yeah, the fog. Visibility down to only being able to see the lines on the road by winding down the window and looking at it passing by. Took me two hours to drive 30 miles and get out of it.

Yes and Couldn't see the end of the hood on my car. I came into it suddenly and ended up in a wreck at a T intersection before I could stop. But everything was ok. Just scary.

oh thats not at 1,000 feet but at abt 38,000 feet unless the weather is tooo cold?
that is just the solidifacation of water vapour uncombusted by the engines.

Not yet in the air, traveling by plane.
