A flyover salute to thank local health care workers and other first responders for their efforts during the coronavirus pandemic is set to take place Wednesday, according to the California National Guard.
Pilots from Fresno’s 144th Fighter Wing will take to the skies in four F-15c Eagle aircraft, KTLA sister station KSEE/KGPE in Fresno reported.
They will take off from the Fresno Air National Guard Base at around 10 a.m. and first fly over Reedley and Selma, north as far as Sacramento County, via the Bay Area through Monterey County, Santa Barbara, and back north through the Central Valley to return to Fresno for a pass over locations in the city.
Earlier, the flyover was scheduled to travel as far south as Los Angeles. But another flyover from the Air Force Thunderbirds will now take place there on Friday.
Cal Guard says all times are subject to change based on weather and other factors.
