I heard the Barksdale B-52 flyover in Ruston yesterday. Never saw them, but they followed I-20 coming back from doing a Monroe flyover.

It's something to see/hear if you have the opportunity. Loved watching the first timers at the Pcola run almost drop to their knees. Good times. USAF, y'all ROCK!

Probably just a show of force from the government to scare people back into quarantine.

Might be an issue for the Blue Angels.

Thunderbirds will be in compliance as they rarely fly as close.

Doesnt seem like this event will be tomorrow. Looks like they will begin next week with the teams getting with the cities to release the information. DOD released a statement about the events yesterday. Joint announcement from the US Navy and US Air Force

quote:

The two demonstration teams will fly over areas of the country hardest hit by COVID-19, starting next week as both joint and individual team flights occurring every one-to-two days until mid-May.


quote:

In order to reach the maximum number of Americans, some portions of America Strong will feature only the Blue Angels or the Thunderbirds, while others will include both teams flying in their signature Delta formations simultaneously.

More information to be provided soon on dates and locations.
