RV's and Monday Night Football
I thought I'd give a little publicity to the local RV formation group. They will be performing a formation flight over Arrowhead stadium at 7:38:30 for the Monday night football game. See story below.

What a GREAT way to publicize RV's
Did you get to give the announcers a script, so they will get their info correct??

Interesting, Robert, I heard about strange lights being seen the other night over the north part of KC. Guess that was it, huh?

They skipped it. I was all set to post the photos. Guess we'll need to rely on people on the scene.

At 7:38pm it was pretty dark here in KC. I hope that it went well.

From the Beechnutz forum...

Driving home this evening I was west of Arrowhead as the fireworks went off. Then coming from the east above the smoke was a broad mass of lights. As I drove closer and the lights came near I could see they were landing lights from the wings of a number of aircraft trailing smoke. I could not be sure of the number, but as I drove and glanced up it looked like four in a diamond - then a second glance it looked like six. Later I saw the formation headed toward Lee's Summit.

Gary,
I TiVo most football games, so I can skip over the pre-game and commercials. I didn't read about the fly over till after watching the game and deleting it from my TiVo. That said, I was just watching SportCenter on ESPN. They not only showed the fly over [viewed from above the flight formation and looking down into the stadium - very cool] but commented positively on it, too. It was during the segment listed as CHARGERS PROBLEM. You should be able to see it on SportCenter today.
