I love flyovers. I love seeing fighter jets in the sky.

Memorial Day festivities in Central New York includes a flyover of many of the villages. I cannot tell you how much I looked forward to that when we lived in Syracuse.

I have family near Warner Robins, Ga. A visit used to be good for seeing several fighter jets overhead and hearing a few sonic booms. Not any more.

It is the sight and sound of freedom. When I see a fighter jet in the sky, I am reminded of those who protect us. As in “We’ve got your back!”

Good thing it was only F-16s and not a Blackbird. They would have wee-wee-ed their knickers.

The Blue Angels do a couple of days of practice then participate in an air show on Sat and Sun every year (except 2013 because of the “government shut down” and $$s). I’ve watched them for many years and never get tired of seeing them or hearing the sound! Love it! We do keep pets and babies inside but the rest of us yell, scream and wave (especially when they fly low over where we watch them).
