NYC area has an airport. There are planes flying at various altitudes all the time. Why would someone actually PANIC just by seeing an airplane flying?
If they are that troubled, they need some professional help.
Like I said, concerned/nervous I can understand. Panic I can't. 
How much you wanna bet that this is a set up for a lawsuit. It is amazing how a lawsuit lottery can help with some people's "panic"

I sincerely doubt that 747s with fighter escorts fly at 1,500 feet in Manhattan very often.
