Jets To Practice Funeral Flyover Today, Another Flyover Scheduled For Wednesday
WASHINGTON -- If you hear loud jets flying over D.C. this evening and
Wednesday, don't be alarmed. It's all part of the preparations for former
President Ronald Reagan's funeral procession.
A team of 13 F-15E fighter jets will practice a formation over the National
Mall between 6 p.m. and 6:45 p.m. The flight is a rehearsal for a similar
flight during the funeral procession on Wednesday.
Wednesday's flight will also happen between 6 p.m. and 6:45 p.m., and it
will involve 21 F-15E jets.
The jets will fly south to north across Constitution Avenue, roughly along
4th Street. They will be 1,000 feet off the ground.
The actual fly-by will take only 60 seconds.
