Thanks so much for the pictures. When these three aircraft flew over the parade, the announcers were almost as thrilled as I was. No joke, they were almost speechless..totally awed. It took my breath away to see them on television, I can't imagine how exciting it was to witness their flight live.

They actually made two parade fly bys. A surprise when they flew over the firsst time, but when they came back, the crowds...and everyone in my house...was cheering. When they flew over the parade the second time, the float honoring Bob Hope was spotlighted. Even the announcers noticed how appropriate that was.

"They actually made two parade fly bys."

I was wondering that - as both pictures (Post 1 and 24) are reported as Rose Bowl fly overs - but the aircraft are not in the same order! Unless the F-22 is also a stealth aircraft, and can make itself look like a F-117 (and vice-versa)!
