[Scan-DC] Flyover cancelled - and not rescheduled

[Brian R]

Just posted on their Facebook page. What a shame!

At 10:00 AM EDT we will present a video tribute including the rarest WWII aircraft and interviews with veterans participating in the Arsenal of Democracy. Unfortunately the weather is not going to safely allow the aircraft to fly today through Washington DC airspace.  Since our authorization to fly through that restricted airspace will expire today, we won't be able to reschedule the flying portion of the program.
We're sorry we couldn't put on the flyover we'd planned, however we hope you enjoy the program streaming on our YouTube and Facebook pages which includes footage of the aircraft, crews, and veterans involved in the Arsenal of Democracy event. We thank you all for your support and understanding.
We also would like to thank our presenting sponsors the Bob and Dolores Hope Foundation and Department of Defense.

Antenna: Outdoor Discone 25-2000 at 10 feet
Recorder: Fortus VOR mode digital recorder
Frequency search: 122-124 AM

Lots of normal traffic running on the normal app/dep frequencies so figured
if they (warbirds) fly later today I might hear something there,or they
could postpone it again till tomorrow. Leesburg wx is 57 with temp going to
61 by 11 AM and 30 percent chance of rain.
