Question

How does Nascar get the Air Force to fly there jets over right before the race?

Answer 1

They coordinate the training flights of the local air bases with the start time of the race to honor our military men and women.

*HEXX*

Answer 2

I don't know why or how, I just know that I get goosebumps every time I look up and see those jets flying over California Speedway, with everyone standing with caps off and hands over heart singing the national anthem.

Gets me every time.

Answer 3

they have to fly traning missions anyway, so they just fly over the track and use it as practice for the pilots. It's a simulation for the pilots for what they would do in war. NASCAR just hooked it up that way and make the fans beleive it's a patriotic event. So the fans believe it's out of patriotism and the pilots use it for a training mission. Kind of like target practice. The pilots actually lock in coordinates and calculate a specific chart mapped out by the "mission"

Answer 4

The Air Force does the flyovers as part of their training exercises.  In return, they get free recruiting space at the racetrack.

Answer 5

Every now and then, it's a Bomber instead of the jets. I like that one better.

Answer 6

It benefits both sides. Most of the flyover pilots are rookies in training and no better training in formation than a Nascar flyover.

Answer 7

They pay them.

drivers like dale jr are sponsered by things like that. It also shows respect for the national athem. they just ask them and probably pay them  a little. i hoped this helped
