North Carolina Air National Guard performing flyover around the state

The North Carolina Air National Guard is planning a flyover around the State of North Carolina on Thursday, May 7th, 2020.

The Air Force Salute is meant to demonstrate the Department of the Air Force’s readiness during this time, while saluting those heroes on the front line of this health emergency–healthcare workers, food banks, first responders and our community.

The flyovers incur no additional cost to the taxpayer, as they are part of regularly scheduled training.

The route starts in Charlotte at 10 a.m. and heads from there to Asheville, so, although it’s not on the following list, communities in Gaston County, and Lincoln County and Cleveland County should get a look at the planes shortly after 10 a.m.
