Happy 244th Birthday, America! - Remembering a special flyover.
Posted: Jul 4th, 2020 - 4:17 pm
The Chiefs were playing the Raiders. President Barack Obama had eliminated patriotic military flyovers at large events. A group of guys in Kansas City who do some formation flying in their own planes decided they'd volunteer to save this tradition and pick up the slack.
They invited a couple of other groups to join them and before they knew it, they had 48 guys with their own airplanes signing up to join in. If they had more time, they probably would have gotten an even larger group as people kept joining and a 49th was added nearer to the event.
Be sure your speakers are turned up. Best if you watch at 'full screen'... pretty impressive and it makes you proud to be an American.
