    Dear friends and followers welcome back to my channel!
    Have you ever wondered why some airplanes get a water salute? I must admit it´s a rare occasion but the tradition is spread out throughout the world, but it´s not the airline industry who started with this salute. It goes way back when ocean liners were setting off on their maiden voyage overseas. Firefighting boats would line up next to the brand new ship and spray water fountains next to it whilst leaving the harbour.
    So in the 1990´s, Salt Lake City Airport would start spraying water arches over retiring Delta airline captains after their last landing. And that´s how it all started. But see more in the video!
    Thanks for watching, all the best your "Captain" Joe

    Our family received a water cannon salute while we escorted our 20 year old son home for the last time, He was a United States Marine. We lost him in 2017. We didn't know they were going to do it, but the Captain ordered it for us. Very emotional moment, very beautiful, thank you sir.

    In the United States, there are "Honor Flights," in which an airliner is chartered to fly veterans of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam to Washington D.C. to see their respective war memorials. These flights often receive a water salute when flying into Dulles and Reagan, and occasionally when they return home as well.

    Being on a flight when a fallen soldier was being returned to his family was one of the most emotional experiences of my life. Once we were under Water Salute the Captain asked us to remain seated until the military officer onboard our flight left the cabin because he was accompanying a fallen soldier home. Sitting on the side of the plane where they brought the casket out I started crying because of how emotional the service was. I was not the only passenger crying because in the quiet of the cabin you could hear others having the same reaction. This will always move me and is a lifetime memory.

The passengers didn’t seem very interested at the time. The first officer was super cool and made it memorable. It was exciting for me and I was very proud of my Dad . Maybe with the passing years it has become more interesting to people. Thank you for your video, I had no idea of the history.

    I was on an Honor Flight with my grandfather. We flew with a bunch of war vets. We went from KSYR>KIAD. Got the water salute at arrival at Dulles, and arrival home at Hancock. We apparently caused several delays at KIAD. Everything stopped as people lined up to welcome the vets to DC. Nobody could get through except our group. All sorts of color guards, etc. welcoming us. Even random people stopped what they were doing. The overhead PA system at the airport announced our arrival. It was an amazing experience. I'm getting emotional thinking about it...
