Thanks Dubi. I would almost be willing to grab my leaf blower and dry the runway if that meant I get to see an awesome flyover.

Update on F16's.

As long as it stays dry, they will fly in from San Antonio and circle like usual before the game and then land just once after the flyover.

If it rains who knows but the forecast and radar looks promising.

I staked out a spot on the south side of town where I have seen them staging for the flyovers before. Only had one shot at them since they stayed out of sight until time for their pass. Managed to grab a few shots from a bit of a distance, still cool to watch.

Great photos Sid!

They looped by the airport twice before the game. The first time it was out of reach of my lense; the second time I might have a keeper but they were not in formation.

After the game they landed and taxi'd over by the fire school. No touch and go. :-(

Well, at least the flyover was a winner. Carry on.

I went out to Easterwood yesterday afternoon to catch them taking off to head back to their base. There was a small crowd there waiting as well, of course including dubi.

Info for upcoming A&M/Alabama game flyover. WHOOP!!

https://www.aggienetwork.com/news/157111/aggies-among-f22-and-f15c-pilots-for-aandm-vs-alabama-game/


"Aggies are among the pilots for Saturday's flyover of four fighter jets at the Alabama game: two F-22 Raptors and two F-15C Eagles.

Showcasing two generations of U.S. fighters, the F-15Cs are from the 159th Fighter Wing of the Louisiana Air National Guard based in New Orleans, and the F-22 Raptors are from the U.S. Air Force's 325th Fighter Wing at Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida."

I'm super bummed that we will have F-22's in town and I'll be in Houston. I will see them for the first time at Wings Over Houston.

No worries Dubi, I'm sure my "high quality" video will make you feel like you are watching in person. LOL Have fun in Houston, that's a great show!

Any word on when they'll do their practice runs? My dad, class of '72 and former navigator in the F4 Phantoms, wants to go watch them do their practice runs.

I didn't know if they'd come in Friday and stay the weekend like a couple Wellsor if that was for a corps event.

Just 3 F15's.

The F22's will be flying in from Ellington on Saturday for the "flyover" then returning back to Ellington.

Should only take them about 10 min.

I heard them fly by and ran out to my car for the camera and shot these from the GSC parking lot. I made it to Easterwood after they landed. :-(

Flyover 6:56.

The F15's take off at 5:20 and will circle a long time. I'm not sure when the F22's will join up since they are flying up
From Ellington.

IPhone, didn't do a good job of lighting control. I took my dad to the little rail yard behind GSC at F&B and Wellborn. He was thrilled to get closer than our normal view from over by SFA.
