Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Flight tracking available on FlightAware, either by airport tracking (DOV to BUF), or the flight designation 'MAFIA17'. Flew back to Delaware last night. Looks like the pilot did a flyover of Medina as well. Surprising they laid over in Buffalo, as opposed to Niagara Falls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago I got a nice video of the flyover but several are already posted. For those in the stadium at Noon, they did a practice flyover that was probably a couple hundred feet Lower than the game one. I couldn’t believe how low and quiet that thing was. It took up the entire stadium. It was definitely higher for the anthem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see the tail number but it's either a Dover or Westover AFB aircraft. It may have refueled at Niagara though. FYI, I'm a former C-5 Crew Chief 4 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a kid in the takeoff flight path, that was my favorite plane because you could hear the grinding engines coming from miles away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I flew in them as a Crew chief in the late 80's , early 90's when the had the General Electric TF-39 engines. They eventually transitioned to General Electric CF6-80C2-L1F (F-138). The TF-39 had a nicer more distinctive "Whine or howl". I sure miss Fred. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glory, thank you for enlightening us, amd of course thank you for your service. We live in a free society, because of men like you. Ask my wife as she was raised in China. She was willing to do anything to get her kids out of China. She appreciates more than many Americans our free society. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
