Flyover
Yesterday, while westbound on I-20, I was flown-over by three FA-18 Hornets in a pretty perfect formation. Just after they passed overhead, the expressway was swallowed in that jet-wash roar. I had Cake’s “The Distance” cranked up, and it was completely wiped out by the noise.
When I was a kid, I loved to see fighter jets slicing across the sky. Yesterday I was worried before I was excited. Presumably these functional-gray jets were part of regular local maneuvers or some festival-related celebrations, yeah?
No worries, Will. Just Opening Day ceremonies at The Ted.
This is the U.S. version of military parades through Red Square.
i should have thought of baseball! I saw the same jets fly over memorial.
Yup, It was opening day at Turner Field. I was there and quite suprised too see them fly over during the singing of the National Anthem. It was awesome, you could feel the wind!
I wish they could have dropped some cheap beer however.
They had another flyover last night too
They flew so low over my house last night I just about crapped my pants. What is this, opening day II? Are they going to keep doing that until we throw up a white flag?
