GOT MY  TEARS!!!

 

 As you know, budget cuts have
 eliminated the military flyovers at large events. Well,
 there's a group of guys in Kansas City who do some
 formation flying, in their own planes, and decided they
 would volunteer to pick up the slack.

 They invited a couple of other groups to join them and
 before they knew it they had 48 guys with their personal
 airplanes signing up to join in. If they had more time, they
 probably would have gotten an even larger group as people
 kept joining and a 49th was added near the event. One
 additional feature of the flyover was the use of pink smoke
 for cancer awareness.
  
 The folks from the Guinness Book of Records were there and
 are expected to confirm it as the largest formation flight
 ever. And, to top it off, the crowd later set the record for
 the loudest gathering at a football stadium. Hope you enjoy
 this short video.
