The 33rd Fighter Wing, flying F-35 stealth aircraft, soared over Magic Kingdom twice.
The first flyover includes a KC-135 “Stratotanker” flown by the 91st Air Refueling Squadron based out of MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa.
The crowds are lined up on Main Street and ready!
Check out this great video of the flyover.
This military flyover comes as the Air Force celebrates 100 years of aerial refueling capabilities and the Walt Disney Company celebrates its 100th anniversary.
Truly inspiring!
Wow! And what a breathtaking and inspiring experience to witness on the 4th of July at Disney World.
