      I'll be a little nicer in the replies here but the US has a lot of people and a lot of them go to college/university and a lot of them pay to watch their school play sports because they live on campus and would rather cheer on their school as there's a lot of family ties and pride in going to college here in the states. Compare it to going to your local soccer teams games and being a diehard fan, sure you might still like a big premier league team but you'll live and die by your local team more than anything.

    Speaking as someone who played in a college band, the directors know when the flyover will happen down to the second (Air Force pilots are pretty good at being where they need to be when they need to be there), so they can stretch or shorten phrases if they need to in order to get the timing down. It still takes a lot of work to make sure everyone is synchronized like that, though. Our director really emphasized that we needed to be watching him and following his direction very closely. :)

    Lou Holz used to say that the Air Force Academy had the greatest home-field advantage in the NCAA because of flyovers. He would spend the entire pre-game trying to get his teams ready to play and then they’d all gawk at the jets. It takes a TON of coordination to get this right and like all things aviation, the USAF does it right more than any other. They are really, really focused on split-second timing and every USAF general is watching not only to see if they are exactly on-time, but if their four-ship formation is perfect. You’ll always hear them saying “#3 is late” or something like that. If the formation is perfect they usually say nothing, just smile at one another knowingly-knowing the pilots’ squadron and wing commanders will get major kudos because their pilots nailed it. And mistakes are never forgotten. They do major after-action reviews and do a ton of weather (big issue!), pressure, and waypoint analysis to get this right. Ground controllers, practice, rehearsals, the band conductor; all part of a giant team effort. But the lead aircraft is the lead-everything depends on that pilot. Even very small mistakes are noticed and debriefed. Timing, as they say, is everything in aviation.

      @@blinkyblonk4912 There’s only one fly-by the Brits are “better” at pulling off: a World War II fly-by. They have a “Queen’s Flight” (Battle of Britain Memorial Flight) with Spitfires, Hurricanes, a Lancaster bomber and an American C-47. The BBMF Merlin engines are restored and refurbished by the US car and airplane racing icon Jack Roush in Michigan. The RAF has great aviators and leadership but the government’s defense budgets have essentially reduced the RAF to a shadow of its former self. The US often intercepts Russian bombers heading for the British Isles because the RAF can’t maintain an interceptor force. There are plenty of really good demonstration flights in the world but nobody flies like the US Air Force. Period. As they say, nothing can stop the US Air Force! 🇺🇸

      @@studuerson2548 It’s all a matter of risk when it comes to aerobatic teams. Some take more, some less. How tight is a matter of risk. But sticking a standard, safe distance four-ship is still very hard. In my view although it’s exciting, too much risk in aerobatic performance groups is not doing a service to the profession, the audience, or the sponsor organization. The risks taken always bears out in accident numbers. FWIW, if you want to see some serious flight discipline in aerobatic performances, see the Korean Black Eagles. Phenomenal. My point, however, was about the discipline and professionalism of regular (not demonstration) flying units in flyovers. That discipline, the general attention to detail in flight operations, translates to superior wartime performance as well.

    They use a couple of ground controller in the stadium with radio comms, there have rehearsed it days before and take time, speed, distance measurements on landmarks before "TOT" (Time over Target). Computations are made and adjustments numbers done to be able to speed up or slow down as needed. It's a tactical choreograph and it's a beautiful thing when it works right on queue.

    It is not unheard of to have the director wearing an earpiece with the music and a click track with audibles in it. He is listening to a countdown, as it were, and he moves his arms in precision to that countdown, while the pilots pass navigation markers at their exact moments. One soundtrack and two finely tuned events that culminate in the perfect flyover. These events don't happen by accident.

If memory serves me it was the day before the actual race. A flight of 4 F-16s were doing a flyover, I believe Indiana ANG. We were supposed to be told when they were inbound so we could keep clear of them. Anyway, long story short. We weren’t, and they flew directly above us. And I do mean DIRECTLY.

    I teach colorguard at a college in Colorado, and I’ve never seen us pull off the timing of the flyover. Sometimes they fly after the song has ended, sometimes they’re so late we have to start the next song in order to make sure kickoff still happens on time (especially if it’s being televised). No idea if that an us issue or a them issue, or if they’re using Air Force Academy students to do it so there’s some error as they’re learning? Either way, you can see the little fist pump the conductor does in celebration after the song ends, because he’s just trying to hit his marks and is blind to what the planes are doing until they’re overhead. Mad respect for being able to pull that off.

    Whenever they do flyovers like this, I’ve always wondered if the flight leader has the game tuned in so that he can hear how far along the band is and use that to adjust their speed to “target.”
    I can’t imagine them doing these flyovers without that kind of information…

      The pilots are flying over landmarks (from miles out if they're jets) at certain times.....it's that simple. They know that if they "go 300 knots and go over the bell tower at 12:30 and 35 seconds" they'll go over the stadium at the right time.
      Andrew is correct....it's all about being where you say you're gonna be at "X o'clock". And yes, the band instructor is doing his thing to be there too.

      Hey! I’m in this band, so I have a little BTS information. We follow the conductors cue, and we expect the flyover. They are promised a specific second, but it is rare that they meet it. Our directors try their hardest to make it lineup, but if the pilots go too late or too early (for reasons unbeknownst to us), then it doesn’t line up (naturally). You can’t hear them coming, since light is faster than sound (and especially because there is already a huge delay between us playing, the director conducting, the audience hearing the band, the visual sight of the plane, and the sound afterward that follows). The pilot also can’t listen because of reasons aforementioned. Hope this sheds some light!

    @christopherbernhardt Год назад +493

    For all the people who are commenting but have never been in a marching band before, or directed a band, here's how it actually works.
    The flyover people practice weeks ahead of time, usually whenever they are close. For example, Blue Angels homecoming about 50 miles away was just finishing and all of a sudden you notice that the flyovers start practicing the day or two after that. They set targets, practice timing and set speeds in order to reach a certain point at a certain time.
    We (the band) then time our pregame, from getting on the field to exiting, to give to the stadium so that they can decide what times everything needs to happen. Football is a show. For example, the UF game said to start at 7:30, but we knew the week before that kickoff was actually set to 7:44. This then allows us to say "Ok, it takes us 2 minutes to do our come on cadence, X seconds to do fanfare / fightsong" and then we have a window where we can realistically start pregame. It takes everyone, though, to understand and feel the tempos. Say we have a flyover and a 3 minute long song is conducted 5% faster. That gives us 9 seconds of extra time that we have to compensate for. This is where the conductor comes into play, especially on the star spangled banner. He can speed up, or slow down as needed so that way we hit the last chord at the second that we know the planes are flying over.
    This is harder than you think because the goal is to make the Star Spangled Banner musical, dramatic, and make sense. No, the pilots aren't listening to the band, or even being told to speed up or slow down. They go X knots to hit the stadium at X time. This can go wrong, for example, at our Veteran's Day ceremony one group took a little longer than was timed for. As a result, the flyover happened almost 45 seconds before the anthem was over. That's in the middle of the anthem. It happens.
    What I'm trying to say is, don't say the conductor is doing nothing, that's dumb. He's timing us to match with the fighter jets which are essentially a stationary time.

They use airspeed for things like maneuvers and formation but ground speed for navigation as ots the only way to get a reliable ETA.
