Then why not include Upstate?

They are obviously flying over some of the highest population corridors of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania (Philadelphia). We could also ask, "Why not Iowa!?"

I think they may expand the flyovers, but these formations are relatively small, and F-16s and F-18s are not massive aircraft. Their footprint is what it is.

Perhaps they will expand their flyovers to other parts of the nation, but I think you know the answer to as why they cannot cover every mile of the United States.

I never suggested that they tour the US, but now that you mention it, that’s a lovely idea!

But, IIRC, you live in NYS? Downstate?

In addition to lifting spirits in general, I believe this flyover is meant salute healthcare workers, so they are flying over areas with high concentrations of hospitals.

And no one will see them due to high rise buildings.
