This is video of a 49 plane fly over Arrowhead Stadium on 10-13-13. It is a world record for the most civilian airplanes in a formation. It was done to raise money for breast cancer.
Love the fly/passes....my husband was the solo aerobatic pilot in Eastern Canada (T33 jets) for 5 years n the early 70's ,with the Canadian Navy...and it always was exciting. Always.
Had a professor who was with 101st during Battle of Bulge. He said at one point, a fleet of B17s flew over. He said 10s were falling with 100s of parachutes floating down. Hard to appreciate how maasive that had been.
Magnificent. The formation was so elegant I actually thought this was a trailer for a WWII late-war air war movie. But, too bad it ain't, but its okay.
