The Commemorative Air Force will conduct a historic warbird flyover of the Phoenix/West and East Valley metro area the morning of Friday, May 8 to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of Victory in Europe (the end of World War II) and salute the enduring spirit of Arizonans throughout history — including their strength and community spirit while dealing with the COVID 19 public health emergency.
The formation of three large aircraft will launch from historic Falcon Field in Mesa at approximately 8:20 a.m. to form-up to head West over central Mesa, then to south metro, the west valley, north metro and east valley. Included in the flyover salute is Mesa Cemetery where U.S. and British are buried, the State Capitol over the USS Arizona monument, the National Cemetery and several communities around the area. The entire route should take about one hour.
San Tan Valley is scheduled to be the 15th location around 9:26am.
