See Whataburger Field like never before from the cockpit of a T-45C in the diamond formation, during the 2024 Corpus Christi Hooks opening-day flyover. This was a lot of fun to fly and I was excited to capture the entire evolution from the brief to the landing.
The "algo" might not think so, but I believe this is the best jam that I have made to date. A lot of time went into this. Let me know what you think in the comments.

For real... I buried my father (87) last year (US. Marine Aviator 1st and Army Aviator 2nd. Retired Army LTC.) I knowingly disobeyed my dads last orders to me to keep his funeral simple and short. I requested and He received a full military and a fly over (choppers as it was his main gig). I did not receive conformation of the fly over till that morning and when I did, I threw out all my plans and worked with the Captain in charge to have everything completed in 30 mins. Being former Army (Dad handed my my first orders to proceed to The 101st.. 13Bravo 155) I handled it with aplomb and managed to obey the keep it "Short" part. I sure miss him a lot!

Great video. Every time the Braves or Falcons have a flyover, sometimes staged out of Dobbins ARB, the Nextdoor message boards light up with “why were the military jets flying around?” Most are newer people who weren’t there when NAS Atlanta had Hornets or the ANG had Eagles or the Raptors were being made there. I miss those “sounds of freedom.”

I always wondered how they got the timing down on these flyovers. Knowing that there was (obviously) someone in the stadium talking to the aircraft, I always incorrectly assumed the jets were in a holding pattern much closer, maybe 30ish seconds away, which *could* make it seem more doable if the cue was "And the rockets' red glare" or wherever that would fall in the timing. I was quite wrong and I'm that much more impressed. Thank you for sharing this, Pail. Love the channel!

Another excellent "FLY NAVY" production! Your calm but assertive voice reminds me of sitting in on the BLUE ANGELS airshow brief when I was an "Air Boss" for civilian air shows. The "BOSS" went through each rehearsed maneuver with that same kind of voice. It was comforting to listen to the cadence of the maneuvers spoken by the "BOSS," knowing that the same tone and cadence would be heard in each crafts radios. The performance they flew was perfect; as always.
