BRITISH MUM REACTS | The Flyover: America's Greatest Pregame Tradition

[@debbiesdeathpile]

The “Missing Man” formation makes me cry every time I see it 😢

[@caretaker158]

Most definitely! Same here.

[@RobertL.JonesJr-hz8vl]

Welcome to the group, Sally. Glad you could join us here. Congratulations to the new Grandmum from Texas. ❤️🙏

Hi Sally! Your daughter and son in law are the best of their generation, and you must be proud of them! You are great on the channel, and I hope to see you again. Congratulations on your new grandson, Archie! Blessings from Pennsylvania!

[@jacqueline-ki6bk]

Now I realize how much time I watch all of you. I'm folding laundry and I just automatically waved and said "Hi Miss Sally!" My cat gave me the weirdest look : )

[@marywood8794]

​@@jacqueline-ki6bkI get looks like that, but from my teens, when I talk to a screen! Lol

[@LarryHatch]

There's one cool variation: night time flyovers which drop paratroopers carrying light markers and flares into a pitch black stadium are stunning. The 3-5 flyers may loiter and circle a bit first before descending. You hear the plane and slowly the paratroopers appear with halos of light and land on the logo at midfield. One of the guys usually delivers the game ball to a waiting referee. The rumble of the plane subsides and you see 3-5 little fireflies way up in the sky. They turn into flying humans with lights and trails of fire and smoke sometimes.

I have lived in Fresno, California, for most of my life and my wife and I graduated from Fresno State, as did our three kids. My wife and I attend anywhere from one to five home football games each year. We have a local Air National Guard fighter wing and a naval air station in nearby Lemoore. In spite of this, we don't have all that many flyovers. However, the paratroop drop is done for pretty much every home game. I prefer flyovers, but the paratroop drop is pretty cool.

[@leahmollytheblindcatnordee3586]

I would love to see that.

[@BobbyP5985]

@@skysurfer5cvaYou don’t have to brag about having a family/kids along with having a college degree. Some of us have nothing in life and are miserable until we die. Just remember that next time before you decide to brag about your privileged lifestyle.

[@skysurfer5cva]

@@BobbyP5985 First, I don't have a "privileged lifestyle." I am the middle class son of middle class parents. I am not wealthy. Second, I worked very hard to get where I am, earning an engineering degree in 1980 and putting in great effort and self-study over the last 43 years to become excellent at what I do. Nothing was handed to me. Finally, I did not cause your misery and I will not apologize for having the life that I have. If you have nothing in life, that's on you to make it better. Whining about your lot in life cannot improve your life. In fact, it makes it worse.

BTW, I know people from poor families who overcame their situations to become financially better off than me through their own great efforts.

My husband is retired military. He was in the Reserves. We live close to the base and they used to have Air shows. They were truly majestic and loud. It was done in a residential setting surrounding the base. The base is now partially closed so no shows anymore in this area. But it was exciting because we got to witness them practicing right over our homes and then we would head to the base on show day. The noise is still with me today. That last airplane, it goes by in the blink of an eye. It’s an out of this world experience. The military, for many of us, means we remember those who have gone before and those who serve now. The shows are exciting but mean so much more. I always like seeing the ones over Buckingham palace for special events. So meaningful. Hi Millie’s Mom. Good job.

[@patrickhumphreys5851]

I love seeing Mom in y'alls redactions guys it's nice to see her reactions to a new culture as I enjoy seeing other cultures around the world. Great Great reaction

[@williambranch4283]

Retired military civilian. Brings tears to my eyes every time.

[@Roboto2073]

I love seeing Sally. It's always cute when she reacts. Love from Minnesota.

[@Dragonfly33]

Just know, James, if anyone messes with Britain they’re gonna have to deal with the U.S. Sleep well.

[@MamaDisco1313]

I lived in Virginia Beach Va by Oceana Military Jet base and had fly overs all day long. You cannot hear even when a single jets flies over, let alone a formation. We were lucky to see the Blue Angels many times. Best airshows in the world. Certain planes fly over and your car's GPS goes out and needs reset.

[@alankemper4068]

I really enjoy seeing MOM when she is on the channel. She is lovely and I really enjoy her comments and observations.

[@KnutFan]

The enjoyment of each other’s culture goes both ways. As an American Royal watcher, I actually enjoy the British flyovers and intense British national pride. The enthusiasm is inspiring!

[@DebraJohnson-k3z]

I live near the Atlanta Brave Baseball Stadium. When the Braves have been in the World Series they do a fly over. I can watch it on TV an then a few seconds later they go over my house. Very cool.

[@russellgtyler8288]

My father was in SAC, so I grew up near air force bases. The roar of jet engines on full military power still gives me goosebumps, and I'm in my 70s.

[@joels5150]

Seeing the Blue Angels is quite impressive as well. It’s like a flyover, but it lasts about 20 minutes and they do a range of coordinated aerial maneuvers 👍

[@Teresia12]

Love you Millies Mom!! I hope you are always a guest on the show. The flyover is always ar the last note of the anthem. From the time i was a young child the National Anthem has always made me emotional. It gives me chills and brings tears to my eyes. I love America and have a ton of pride in my country.

[@CollarCityGuy]

I love seeing Sally. It's always cool when she reacts!

[@valeriepratt2140]

I love the flyovers, but to truly feel the meaning, you must see one at a stadium.

[@hughfuller8416]

You’re apart of this now. Welcome aboard The Beesleys KZbin family, Sally.

[@peterhineinlegen4672]

Yeah, it's not just _any_ five seconds for the flyover, they know _which_ five seconds they'll be over.

[@georgew9397]

Thoroughly enjoy Sally!! She’s really been a fun addition to James and Millie!! And so happy for you all bringing Archie into the world!! You all make my day!!

[@That1Random96]

Where I live and work in the US, we constantly hear and see military planes fly over. It's always amazing to watch.

[@clintwood1083]

True about the specific timing. The flyover occurs at the exact time the National Anthem finishes.

[@RoniFromTN]

I absolutely LOVE flyovers! Don't know if it's because I'm a disabled Army veteran, but it just does something to me emotionally. Tears streaming down my cheeks have absolutely nothing to do with sadness. It's more joy and pride in our country, thinking of the sacrifice that so many made in the name of freedom, and appreciating those who fought so others could live in some semblance of peace. The awesome power of those machines is incredible! THAT'S why I love flyovers. 🇺🇸❤️💙

[@webbtrekker534]

This coming November 11th my Vets group will be participating in an annual Veterans Day Parade. We have been in this parade for over 20 years and there is a fly over of some kind. Usually it has been an Air Force C17 but we've had fighters and helicopters. You never know. It will be a surprise what we will have fly over us this year. Always a thrill!

[@randieandjodistrom854]

I'm a graduate of the United States Air Force Academy--many, many years ago. Every year, the United States Military Academy at West Point (Army), the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis (Navy) and the United States Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs (Air Force) play each other--each academy plays one of the rival service academies at their home stadium and the other academy at their home stadium. There was no greater experience than when we (the United States Air Force Academy) would play the rival service academy at our home stadium--Oh My Days--the flyovers were incredible. We would have virtually (if not actually) every type of aircraft in the United State's Air Force inventory fly over the stadium--fighters, bombers, cargo aircraft, reconnaissance, and trainers--everything. It was mind-blowing, and sometimes, window-blowing as some of the aircraft would fly so low and fast that they actually shattered our dormitory windows--it was absolutely awesome.

[@caretaker158]

I’m a bit late but just had to give a hello and welcome to the extended KZbin family to you, Sally! You’ve given us a wonderful young lady in your daughter. I know I’ve enjoyed watching her and James grow in their knowledge of all things USA and beyond, and can’t wait to see Archie grow and thrive in such an obviously loving home.

[@MelNel5]

I love seeing Sally reacting to videos with y’all. More Sally please! Such a lovely lady. The Beesleys are my favorite reactors on KZbin. Congratulations to all of you for bringing Archie into the world. Such a precious little boy ♥️

[@Billy-zv6gv]

When our Arizona Diamondbacks played New York Yankees in World Series soon after 9/11/2001, I was smoking a cigarette outside and watched and heard deafening roar of a Stealth bomber flying low over our apartment, so I ran inside and watched it fly over the stadium on TV. Awesome moments!

[@patriciab8876]

Being a Kansas City Chiefs fan and a resident of KC, I was touched by a particular flyover before a game with the Raiders. "On Sunday, October 13th, 2013, forty-nine homemade Van’s RV aircraft entered a tight formation and synchronized their flyover to occur at the very end of the national anthem. Not only did these pilots pull off a fantastic formation flight, but each plane left a pink smoke trail in honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month." There are a few videos of this and I think you would enjoy seeing them.

[@Jude_196]

LOVE MOM!!! :) I think it's VERY NICE to see her and she gives a little different perspective, from experience!! GO, MOM!!! :) ❤❤❤

[@toddodell2904]

I served 25 years with the USAF and every time I see a fly over it gives me pride.

[@deadstickgaming3665]

Even at airshows, we have a separate plane do a flyover at the beginning! It's one of those things that, along with the flag, give you a reminder of what the anthem is all about, it's not just an old poem somebody wrote, it still has real meaning to this day. One of the cooler "flyovers" I've seen was at an airshow at an Air Force base and instead of having jets in the air waiting to fly over, they had two B-1 bombers take off during the anthem. Flyovers are always great but when there's 8 afterburners crackling in the background it's even better

[@dedebones1967]

Millie's mom is delightful and very sweet congratulations on your grandson Ms Sally your son-in-law is so sweet and your daughter too what a wonderful family I whole I see so much love in your hearts for each other live long and prosper

[@brendahowell6796]

Really enjoying Sally reacting as well. Thank you Sally.

[@marycoombe2436]

You should note that many of the flyovers were in the missing man formation.

[@paulayala4816]

It's great to see Sally helping out with the reaction videos. I have seen a couple of fly over's. One for the Winston Western 500 at Riverside International Raceway (defunct). The other time was for another Nascar event at the Ontario Motor Speedway (defunct). Every time you see them it sends a chill up your spine. Probably the only formation that can top it is seeing a missing man formation.

[@Wolfpack4eva]

I love videos with British Mum She's so sweet and I love her reactions.

[@kathleenparton1396]

I lived just a couple of miles from an air force base and had to deal with flyovers when they did maneuvers. The sounds and the vibration was awesome.

[@corinnepmorrison1854]

Believe me when I say you can feel that aircraft’s engine…rumble, from the top of your head to the soles of your feet!! ❤️🇺🇸💝

[@keleidoscope3564]

I live by an airforce base, so I am constantly hearing jets fly over my house 😅

[@fredflintstone5860]

Thank you for taking notice of a special tribute our military performs for our citizens and friends. I can say when I hear our national anthem it triggers a lot of emotion in me and if our birds fly over I will shed a tear of pride and joy and get a lump in my throat. When I hear our anthem I think about the men and women who are standing guard at the wall standing in harms way. I think of all who served and fought in the past and especially for those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. May god continue to bless our great nation and the nations of our friends around the globe.

[@daydreamer7832]

I really enjoy watching Millie’s Mums reactions

[@hawkuser604]

When I crewed UH-60 Black Hawks for the Army National Guard we used to land on little league baseball fields before the game started and let the kids ask questions and sit in the aircraft. Then when they sang the Anthem we would do a flyover for them. They loved it. We did a lot of flyovers for different events, July 4th, Memorial Day, etc. We loved doing it and most of the time it was a complete shock to the people on the ground!

[@ghstdnsr]

Love these flyovers, Being around Fighters most of my life and just an awesome feeling, I was at an airshow yesterday and seeing the F-35 and Thunderbirds demonstration I get that same feeling. Working around the Thunderbirds for a couple years it was the best feeling every time they and the crew even moved even if it was seeing them towed around the field.

[@PaddieMac]

Y’all should do a reaction to the Blue Angels. They are a Navy flight demo team based in Florida. While practicing for shows they often do beach fly overs. It’s an awesome site to see on vacation.

[@spuds416]

For the Five seconds of the Actual flyover it takes Hours and numerous personnel. Hours before the Flyover ground personnel have to Preflight the Aircraft check it's air worthiness, fuel, tires, engines etc. Then when they return they have to Refuel check and repair any malfunctions and ready the aircraft for the next mission

[@floydhill9265]

I think Sally and Millie would enjoy the movie Fried Green Tomatoes

Glad to see Mum back. Love you all ❤

[@julielifejusthappens1232]

I love the fly overs. I was raised on Air Force bases all over the world. I sleep better with night sounds from the south and jet engines. The patriotism that comes to the military brats is totally ingrained in us. We have sent parents off to war and when we got older and married military also, we sent spouses off to war. We know how to pray and to thank God for protecting our loved ones. Sometimes we loose our loved ones to the wars by death or the psychological effects. My Dad was a WWII, Korean and Viet Nam vet. My husband was Viet Nam era and Gulf War Vet. My Daughter is current day conflicts. She has been in for 20 years now. But these are not our only warriors. I have straight line warriors since before the revolution. So my heart sings with every fly over, every National Anthem and every Pledge of Allegiance. And I would give my life for my country because America should always be Free.

[@lynn2574]

Three rivers run through our town, and they host a big hydroplane boat race each summer on one of them. It brings people from all over, and is a multi day event. They arrange fly overs each year, who drop down and do maneuvers over the River. Very cool to see. But, we live about 3 miles from the airport, and about 5 from the river…. And we are in the flight path, It is SO LOUD, and absolutely rattles the house with each flyover. We have to sedate our dogs for those couple days each summer, 😂

[@krisschobelock4973]

Hi Millie's Mom "Grandma"!! Glad to see you!! Bet you are enjoying Archie! I remember when my 1st Grandson arrived!! Love watching you on the videos and your reactions!! By the way - they do fly overs at a lot of college football games also! The OSU/Penn State game had military helicopters (3 of them) fly over after the national anthem! It was awesome!

[@62rowley]

At our high school for homecoming, the air National Guard will do a flyover at the homecoming football game

Probably the greatest Anthem/Flyover is this last Super Bowl with Chris Stapleton

[@andrewgalindo6959]

I am loving Mum's reactions. I would love to see her react to the NASCAR crashes video that you and Millie reacted to. No fatalities.

[@dynamodan8216]

They try to sync it to the "laaand of the free [pause for fireworks]" but like with everything in life, sometimes the helicopters come late. And that's fine, it's still national guard birds buzzing us, that will still set any little boy off their seat. And that's what sport is all about.

[@ScottyM1959]

James did you recognize the planes that did the flyover after they talked about the friend who was in Vietnam before being a coach? They were one of your favorites the A-10 Warthog. They always give me a reminder of the pride I have in my service and of all the men and women that have since.

[@TedC5203]

I really enjoy Sally being on the show.

[@markrobertdevison1227]

My favorite flyovers are at Nascar races because they often circle around and go over a second time. I've been to many where that happened. Most recently at the Daytona race on 8/26.

[@hawkuser604]

We did that with 4 UH-60s in 2003 ( I think) at the Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis. A bit hard to hold that formation around the track, but it was fun!

[@chazf883]

I've spent all day watching football so that was pretty neat to see your video at the end of the about flyovers on football games.

That is so cool. We have had National Guard helicopters, flying up north to Grayling Michigan, go almost over us. And I guess there are military planes that fly near the Capitol to an airbase about 30 miles from us.. Love the pap-pap-pap of the helicopters. Another super event we were able to see was the launch of a space shuttle from Cape Canaveral in Florida. That really shook the ground. There is also a big screen movie theater/cinema near us, where they showed a film of the takeoff of a shuttle and the camera must have been almost on the service structure. The sound was awesome. Hope you are doing well and getting enough sleep. Enjoy Millie’s mom. Thanks.
