Hello from the 148th Fighter Wing. We’ve received your Air Force-approved fly over request for July 4th, 2024, and have determined we can support your patriotic event. We received large number of fly over requests this year from diverse locations in Minnesota, Northern Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We can’t be to each of your events at the exact time that you requested but we planned in a way that allowed us to support as many events as possible. If the fly over time I’ve provided you will not work please let me know and we’ll take your location off our flying schedule for July 4th. You can expect two F-16s will fly by in a single pass at approximately 1,000 feet in the direction specified below. Here is our plan:
Flight of 2 F-16s, Minnesota
CLOQUET 10:32 East to West
MOOSE LAKE 10:36 North to South
NASHWAUK 10:50 South to North
ELY 11:17 South to North
