ROYAL AIR FORCE LAKENHEATH, England -- The 48th Fighter Wing performed a multiple jet practice flyover of Tottenham Stadium today, Oct. 6, 2021.
The jets were approved to perform a flyover demonstration during two upcoming National Football League games on Oct. 10 and Oct. 17. The jets will take off and land from RAF Lakenheath on the day of the flyover.
The U.S. Air Force performs close to 1,000 flyovers a year, which serves as a way to showcase the capabilities of its aircraft while also inspiring patriotism and future generations of aviation enthusiasts. These flyovers are done at no additional cost to the taxpayer and serve as time-over-target training for our pilots, aircrew and ground control teams.
