Death Valley flyovers


Dec 6, 2019, 12:07 PM

What was your favorite?

Also do you have any great pics of them with the DV in the background?

I love a good HELICOPTER flyover, personally!***

Years ago- Texas A&M game
4 F16’s felt like they barely cleared the lights
Phenomenal

It that didn’t jump start your heart, you needed
to shut the casket!

It doesn't take but one of those bad boys to get your attention. I live on the approach angle to Myrtle Beach and they frequently fly over our house at 3-4,000 feet and THEY ARE VERY LOUD!

the A&M game in the early 2000s. It was sonic boom type loud and a surprise

Sometime back in the ‘80s (I don’t remember who Clemson was playing), there was an air show happening in Anderson the same weekend. I remember during half time of the game, 3 or 4 WW2 warbirds flew over and treated the crowd to a mock dogfight over the stadium. Pretty awesome.

Military Day this year, because we actually knew one of the pilots.

I like the WW2 fighter flyover. You can see them coming through the entire National Anthem and they finally arrive at the end.

On the other hand, a couple of years ago I witnessed two F-15's pass about 1000 feet in front of me at a relatively low elevation at Mach+ speed on a test mission and it scared the poop out of me. It took about 3 seconds from the time I could see them approaching on the desert horizon until they were on top of me. I was anticipating the sonic boom and I still thought I was a dead man when it hit me. That's what needs to happen in DV. ;)

I didn't get to see all of them this year, but my fave from the ones I was at was definitely the A-10s.

The best flyover I've ever seen at a Clemson game though - easily last year at the Natty and that U-2. Just such a rare and incredible site!

The C-130 for the FSU game was my favorite.

That bad ########### was flying LOW that day!
