Flyover?
- Thread starter tyler24
- Start date
No idea but in the past we have advertised it if there has been an ISU connection with the flight crew.
i sure hope not since ill probably have a hangover...flyovers have caused unwanted amounts of pain in previous years
F-35B Joint Strike Fighters coming up from Fort Worth, landing at the 50 yard line, then taking off vertically. I hear there are a lot of ISU grads that work down in Texas for LM. Might be kinda hard on the grass, but I think our turf managment guys can handle it.
I heard Sully Sullenberger was going to attempt a flyover, but he will probably end up landing in the Skunk River........
Last time NU was in Ames we had one and it was pretty cool. I wasn't expecting it and was a wee bit intoxicated and then all of a sudden they felt like they were right on top of us in the endzone.....pretty sure I almost peed my pants.
If I remember correctly, they flew LOW that time though. Like barely above the scoreboard low.
I wish they would, seems like we used to have a lot of those and now it's been forever. The Army one with the Blackhawks was pretty cool.
Like this low?

I'd be cool with that, as long as they remember to raise the hook for the arrestor wire.
This would be the year to try it so low. We wouldn't want to bust-up a brand-new shiny scoreboard.
That's about as low as I remember but I think there were 3 of them.....again my memory is a little fuzzy on this. I just remember that for about a half a second i was sure I was going to die. I sit two rows from the top in the end zone so they seemed very very close
I don't think we had a flyover last year, I think the last one we had was for the kNU game in 2008. It was a 2 unit flyover, with one of the pilots being an ISU grad.
Then we promptly got spanked by kNU.
