I hope he had permission to do that. I would be one freaked out motorist.

A couple of the Doolittle Raiders (one of them was Ted Lawson, who wrote 30 Seconds Over Tokyo) flying into Alameda to embark on the USS Hornet, flew their B-25s UNDER the Bay Bridge.

Doolittle, no surprise, apparently didn’t have much of a problem with his guy’s doing that.

yea, like I said earlier, the pilots fly better than you drive. Not knocking your driving skills, those pilots are simply awesome.

I used to commute down the ‘old’ 5 Freeway, past the now closed El Toro U.S.M.C. Air Station. Even though I knew they were coming, and I love the heck out of our Marines, the noise that a pair of FA-18’s made, just overhead, would scare the life out of me.
