Flyovers are a beloved feature of Texas A&M home football games, often featuring Aggie pilots.
Thanks to a large number of Aggie aviators in the military seeking to take part, the tradition has expanded this spring to A&M baseball games, with flyovers at the home opener, Feb. 17, and the first conference game, March 17.
The next is scheduled for Tuesday night, March 28, before the Aggies' game vs. the University of Texas.
Tuesday's flyover will feature "many Aggies on board" a C-5M Super Galaxy the Air Force's largest aircraft, too big to land at College Station's Easterwood Airport, said Maj. John Parrish '03 with A&M's Corps of Cadets.
Whenever needed, The Association of Former Students helps provide hotel accommodations for the football flyover crews, and this has continued into the baseball flyovers. This part of the A&M gameday experience both inspires pride and connects with the Aggie value of selfless service.
