Anonymous Coward User ID: 78763983 United States 05/01/2020 09:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | How many tens of millions of dollars is this going to cost? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78866151 Where can I get a couple of hundred bucks to have enough to pay my rent this month after being laid off four weeks ago? Bingo. Just a big show to bring out the patriotism in the Sheeple. They did the same at the football games after nine eleven. |

Approximately 45 seconds of flying time in just one of those FA-18s or F-16s would probably pay two months of your rent. Enjoy the airshow that you helped pay for! |

User ID: 76950746 United States 05/01/2020 10:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Does anyone think they could be doing something other than just flying over cities? Is it really just for emotional support and patriotism? I guess it could be, but how much does it cost to do something like this? I just don’t see why the government would use tax payer money for an operation like this without gaining anything in return. Last Edited by Bubba gon Getcha on 05/01/2020 10:12 PM |

Air shows are cancelled, so they're doing these flyovers. I also read that the pilots have to put in a certain number of hours flying. Rather than "practicing" somewhere in a remote area, they are doing it for the public. |

I don't care what you say you read. These air shows cost tens of millions of dollars in flight operational hours, ground support and transport of all the equipment using both the flight show aircraft and at least four cargo transports and all the crew that goes with it. |

Dayton first cancelled, then said postponed, the air show but here's a link. It's a big event and amazing what they can do. Some of the trivia: The Blue Angels fly as close as 18 inches apart! It only takes 72 hours for a Blue Angel jet to be made combat ready! The fastest speed during the performance is about 700 MPH, just under Mach 1! [link to daytonairshow.com (secure)] |
