Military Flyover

hancoveguy · 07-15-2011, 11:21 AM

Don't forget, the Pease Airshow is Aug 13 and 14 and the USAF Thunderbirds will be there this year. We went last year and it was a nightmare. I think because it had been soooo long since they had an airshow in NH, they needed to get the bugs out all over again. The lines were absolutely insane, even by airshow standards. I did two enlistments in the Marine Corps, most of which on a air station (El Toro, Miramar, Kadena AFB) and I have never seen lines like we did at Pease last year. It is also probably a testament to the sentiment the public feels towards the Military right now.

Anyway, it was a good show, performance wise, and I hope it will generate some lake view fly overs.

Ok ok, so maybe this Coast Guard J Hawk is not hovering over Governor's Island, but it looks just like the one that flew above Timber and Governor's Islands, then headed low towards the Laconia Airport (which is in Gilford) or somewhere, last week.
