    I have to say, I could have left the stadium happy after the F16 flyover at the beginning of the game, and I had a really good feeling about the game after they did that flyover. I know that is completely illogical and makes no sense, but I just felt it.

    Since I've been going to Jets games, I can't remember the last time they did a fly over with actual Fighter Jets. The F16 is such a beautiful airplane, I wish they'd do that every game! Then again, the F15 would be even better. :)

    Thank you to the Air Force for providing an excellent flyover for the Jets game, and thanks to our Armed Forces for serving our country so well and protecting us while putting your own lives on the line every day. You are part of the reason we live in such a great country where we can enjoy Jets football week in and week out.

    I was still walking in durring the flyover. I must say, that was one of the coolest ones I have ever seen. Those planes are so fast, and so loud, but you don't hear them till they're right over you.

    A++ for that!

    Thanks for the vid! It is unreal when in person, just the feeling of the engines as they pass overhead.

    By the way, you must be sitting around section 118/117 right? Your camera angle was taken from almost the same viewpoint that I saw it.

    They always do the missing man formation, and it is to symbolize the sacrafices made by those we have lost in combat.

    Saw it from the parking lot on the way in. It's how I knew I was late again.
