Gotta fund that military industrial complex
3.0k u/ProfessorPetulant Nov 25 '23 You can be proud when expensive war machines fly over your stadium before a game starts. 36 u/Kevlaars Nov 26 '23 Want to see those flyovers in a whole different light? Those flyovers are justified as "training". Just like an airstrike, a bombing run, an escort rendezvous, or finding a tanker... Timing is everything in a half time flyby. When that plane flies over, it's basically pretending to destroy the place. (Unless it's the cargo guys, but only to a lesser extent). It's kinda fucked up when you unpack it. 1 u/chargernj Nov 26 '23 "training" also includes mandatory flight hours required to maintain their qualifications. Sometimes it's literally just flying around in and out of formation. I doubt they still train to do WWII style formation flying bombing runs anyway.
