oh look, another fake controversy. Guy is talking about wasting tax dollars, you would think "conservatives" would care about that. Instead you care about symbols like any dictatorship regime would. Your idea of patriotism is showing military power and waving a flag while destroying your country.
This is dumb. If you can't tell the difference between calling soldiers losers for serving and some planes flying over a stadium, you've got issues. Though having issues is likely a prerequisite for being in the trump cult. It makes perfect sense you can't process that difference. Its all the same to you. Explains a lot.Is there no limit to what people will believe if it is prefaced by the phrase,
"Scientists say" ?

again - it isn't wasting anything. The crews have a mandatory minimum number of hours of flight time - as do the aircraft. They typically fly the bare minimum annually - to save money - so the military decides to allow some of those flight hours to flyovers and air shows because it is a good marketing tactic and frankly, cause people enjoy seeing them. Everyone literally wins in this scenario but you still find a way to complain about it.

I'm not the one complaining about It. Fact still remains, its a complete none issue. Ok, so it may or may not be a waste of fuel, cool. This has absolutely nothing to do with patriotism. At worst these guys have it wrong about the costs and benefits.
trump retards are running crazy looking for anything to attack their opponents on while ignoring mountains of BS from the idiot they support.Is there no limit to what people will believe if it is prefaced by the phrase,

LMAO and there it is. The apoplectic left gracing us all with their knowledge on things they know nothing about. These flights are typically apart of pilot training that the navy and airforce routinely do. Typically, these flights take 10 minutes out of their 12 hour mission training. The fans love it, and its a great way to recruit, and show the American people what theyre paying for. Patriotism and pride in country isnt something that I expect you to understand.EMT/Firefighter Crew

Nobody suggested that they are doing it just for flight hours, but only a moron wouldn't realize that the activity counts towards flight hours. Why not entertain some people and help with recruiting at the same time? That is an easy business decision if I've ever heard one.
Now, if you think that the military needs to cut down on its required flight hours that's a different point, but would at least make your complaint valid.

IIRC, the military pays the NFL millions for the right to fly over the stadiums like that on game day, that could be where the waste of money comes from. It’s one thing to pay to hang signs in the stadium/arena/race track/etc or sponsor a team, as the those sponsor dollars that help the teams, but when they’re already burning money for flight hours like this, on top of other sponsorship/advertising dollars spent, why should they spend the extra funds to be allowed to fly over a game, especially to a league that didn’t even pay taxes until 5 years or so ago.

Yeah I'm aware of this but know it is a very tiny amount, it was $6 million between 2011-2014 (https://www.cheatsheet.com/money-car...ives-nfl.html/)
A flyover itself is like $40,000, and if anyone thinks the military could buy better advertising for ~$2 million /year you should probably call the military and get a contract.
