I didn't realize this was happening until I ran across it on a search. 70 vintage planes flying over the most restricted airspace in the world. Should be cool. For the first time since 21 Jan 2009, I wish I was in DC.

[PeteePie]

To any and all vintage aviation nuts like me.

[PROCON]

Ah, yes, the roaring sound of Freedom.

I'm sure many libs will pee their panties.

[noiseman]

Ummmm, while they’re there.........?

[RWGinger]

THANK YOU
A THOUSAND TIMES
I did not know about this

[PeteePie]

You write what I think;-)

Why are park rangers allowed to speak at these events? I’ve noticed that about the 9/11 Memorial as well.

[EternalVigilance]

What time?

[molson209]

The White House wrote a speech and then sent Rice ,everyone else is hiding

[EternalVigilance]

I found it: "The first formation is estimated to be over the Lincoln Memorial
 at 12:10 p.m. (EST)"

12:10 - 12:50 EST
From the site:
The flyover will include dozens of World War II aircraft flying in 15 historically sequenced warbird formations overhead. The formations will represent the War’s major battles, from Pearl Harbor through the final air assault on Japan, and concluding with a missing man formation to “Taps.” Never before has such a collection of WWII aircraft been assembled at one location, to honor the large assemblage of veterans gathered at the WWII Memorial for a ceremony. God bless the Internet today!

What a slap. Not even the spit from anyone in this travesty of an administration is worthy to shine the shoes of a single honorable WW II vet.

In the infamous words from an anti-war has been actor to one of his ‘’buddies’’ at the first clinton swearing in...... ‘’ don’t worry my friend, those are our planes now’’.

Midway was before Guadalcanal, not after.

“Sierra Hotel!”

[PeteePie]

Great, thanks. I’m desk bound so the live internet feed works out. It ought to be on every media outlet, if’n you ask me. I feel better viewing from a site dedicated to the honor of the occasion.

Midway was before Guadalcanal, not after.

So was that before or after the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Thanks. Just watching it with my step-dad who is a WW2 vet/Pacific.

[PeteePie]

Salute!
