Arrowhead Stadium, 49 plane flyover

Chiefs vs Raiders, 2013

[@kpeterson2732]

As a guy who has 5,000+ hours of jet fighter time, and hundreds of hours leading/flying formation in all kinds of weather and light and darkness, my hat is off to these wonderful, talented private pilots. Trust me, the dudes in the muddle of this “pack” had a huge responsibility to be smooth for those outside of them. Great formation, great flag waving, and great patriotism. Well done‼️

[@dpbray53]

Best video I've seen yet. I was one of the 49 in this flight and you really captured the experience!!! Thanks, David "Tater" Bray

[@yvettekooistra3611]

I've never seen anything like this and it touched my heart and my soul. I'm proud to be an American. God bless each and everyone of you for doing something this spectacular and patriotic, and God bless America ❤🤍💙

[@flyingfishsurf]

Pretty cool. So glad that, as a taxpayer, I didn't have to pay for a flyover. Do it on your own dime, otherwise it's just needless propaganda. Semper Vigilans.

[@Sunny-xq1tn]

@@yvettekooistra3611 yes, awesome fly over!

[@Sunny-xq1tn]

David Bray, thank you for your Service to our country and for being part of an incredible patriotic event! This fly over gave me chills, so precise and beautiful. God bless you sir🇺🇸🙏🏼

[@Sunny-xq1tn]

@@flyingfishsurf that’s rude! They did the fly over on their own dime! Patriotism, try it some time🇺🇸

[@stevekosovich9091]

That had to be the coolest flyover I have ever seen.

[@NanaLee5]

9 years later and it brings tears of joy to my eyes!! 🇺🇸❤️

[@borntafly]

I didn't know what I would feel about the little planes in formation...- but I felt a tear coming on the moment I saw them and humble pride - Great job guys!

[@eagledancer1832]

What a spectacular display. Thanks to all the volunteers that participated in the flyover.

[@robertganz5500]

….volunteers ‘WHO’…

[@MetaView7]

The sight and sound moved me to tears. Well done everybody.

[@lanamhunt5631]

How amazing. From the words of a Vet, I am truly blessed. Thanks to my fellow Vets: thanks for your and sacrifices. God bless you all!🇺🇸😍

[@2akAt74k]

I love it how at the moment he sings "free" in the phrase "land of the free," @ 1:03 the planes sparkle as they reflect the sunlight. I got goosebumps.

[@lawyers9]

Me too ! If it DOESN’T, you need to check your status as a PATRIOT! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

[@slumdogpreacher6964]

Absolutely stunning, amazing, and so impressive. Thanks to all of you for making this happen. I applaud you all. Well done!

[@JohnLizJaeger]

This is one of the most amazing things I've seen on KZbin! I'm still crying - great camera work, too!!!

[@egreenspot]

Thank God we still have some Patriots left around in this once GREAT country. God Bless these flyers !

[@degen9300]

@Tanner Knaggs LMAO! He had no idea what was coming

[@WJCharliee]

The Backstory to this event: One of the best flyovers!!! The Chiefs were playing the Raiders. AND our, at the time, President Obama, who had PREVIOUSLY eliminated patrioticmilitary flyovers at large events. A group of guys in Kansas City who do some formation flying in their own planes, decided they'd volunteer to SAVE this tradition and 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 own 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. Turn speakers up. Watch at 'full screen'.... pretty impressive and it makes you proud to be an American.

[@jonspencer4811]

To be fair, Obama didn’t eliminate the flyovers - Congress did. They failed to pass a series of budgets forcing “sequestration”, which by law blocked ALL discretionary spending in 2013, including military flyovers. The flyovers were reinstated before the end of his term. Regardless, that “private” flyover was a thing of beauty 😊

[@barts1011]

Magnificent, why anyone would give a thumbs down to this is beyond me!

[@susanbolton6215]

Saw the Blue Angels fly over the Golden Gate a couple of years ago but this was more impressive! Brought tears to my eyes.

[@flyingfishsurf]

I saw a Blue Angel fly UNDER the Golden Gate during Fleet Week decades ago. It made headlines and it they made sure it NEVER happened again.

[@Aztailwind1]

2 year anniversary of the Pink flight of 49 Vans aircraft- I was in the back of the "arrowhead" shape. KC Flight hosted pilots from all over the country. Great hosts, great cause, great City, great Game! Cheers

[@frankiemayes2035]

What a Beautiful display of Patriotism ,love and respect for our country. 🙏 Thank You

[@CP-py5gp]

What a great video! Very impressive and I cannot imagine being there to see that in person! Wow!

[@robbiee8825]

How things have changed in 9 years. Beautiful video

[@sharonbinter107]

This was beautiful! Thanks to everyone who provided this fantastic experience!

[@MeteorMega]

Awesome what AMERICANS can do on their own..... we are amazing people and never forget what we stand for.

[@lbjlbj1]

One e-mail going around says these are RADIO CONTROLLED models flying over! Well, that would be impossible. Getting 3 RC planes in a formation without a mid air would be a real trick. Putting 49 FULL SCLAE pilots and PLANES together without a mid air is a serious tribute to many hours of pre-flight planning and briefings.

[@rayvalverde5686]

I had the pleasure of watching the Chief's for many years.....and never grew tired of the Spectacle!! Good Luck Kansas City CHIEFS....Playoffs 2017!!!

[@dougyoung349]

In case you missed it, those 49 planes are homebuilt kits from "VanS", all models of their "RV" Series. Great demonstration !

[@DaRedeyeJedi808]

Lol yeah okay

[@dontroxler4371]

Only in America. 👍

[@jenna0900]

An awesome display of RV’s! Obviously great builds and awesome pilots with both talent and spirit.

[@KnightOwlVidz]

Mr. Pond: My experience and sentiments exactly! Such an awesome and touching display of good people stepping up.

[@javehernandez1549]

VERY cool. God Bless all of you pilots and everyone else who participated!

Fabulous!!!! God bless these precious pilots ❤️❤️❤️

[@sharroncrowder351]

What an impressive display of the American Spirit! Shows how much we can do when we pull together as a team.. Thanks to all those that flew and double thanks to all those that put the flight together! We are strong as a nation - maybe we should vote those in DC out!

I just saw this video March 2023….I am humbled that so many years have passed and still Americans are posting with pride in our USA veterans. Thank you to everyone who organized this flyover. I am hopeful that our younger generation can keep this honor, duty and pride continuing. God Bless America.

[@CarlWeisinger]

Closest "goose bump moment" to this was at the Daytona 500 in the early 80's when over 40 cars were side by side and nose to tail with the pedal to the metal, engines literally screaming as they headed for the first turn just after our National Anthem. BUT THIS produced a more exciting and patriotic moment in a video. Wish I could have been there ! The heart of our country is strong,......the heart of our government is in distress. Thanks to everyone that had a part in producing this moment. Those that were in attendance will remember if for the rest of their lives.

[@kcflight823]

The flight consisted of 9310 H.P. 200 pumping cylinders, burning 375 GPH and 94 Pink smoke cartridges. Glad everyone liked it!

Great video! It took a lot of planning, coordination and skill to pull this off. Regarding the thumbs down; my only complaint would be that the planes only flew over once and they came in too high.

Amazing!!! How in the hell could there be 300 thumbs down? Must have been Kamperdick droids!

I love flyovers, especially jets. They really fire up the crowd.

[@flyingfishsurf]

Flyovers have ZERO relevance to the game. It's propaganda. Better suited to the 4th of July or other politically inspired events. At least they kept it in the private sector and the taxpayers didn't have to pay for it. GPG.
