I plan on being southwest of round valley around noon on my bike

I couldn't make it to PNC so they graciously agreed to fly over my house. . Damn, that was cool.

They just flew over my shop in Raritan Center right at 11:45 on schedule. Couldn’t get outside to see it in time but it was loud AF in the building.

Two of the F-16s were trailing by about 90 sec when they flew over Edison ; we were already walking back when they passed.

Those F16s were three Jersey Devils out of AC

I love that the air force is still flying these after almost 65 years in service...just about a tie with the B52

Good designs stand the test of time. That, and good maintenance and parts availability.

Military v. Commercial: Don’t see too many 707s still flying doe.

cost, commercial is about making money, not spending it on maintenance/repairs, military is about accomplishing the mission, huge difference. Also not sure how much longer they will be flying those, mcguire is getting the new kc46a to replace the kc-10s ( you know the bigger tanker, which also isnt as old)

I didn't see the messaging in advance, but ran out of the house with the kids when the windows started rattling. Really impressive
